So, for my Sunflower Power image, I colored it with Copics twice and popped up the outer portions of the image (Paper tole). I also burnished the backs of the flowers for a little more dimension. I printed the sentiment directly onto the the decorative paper and the rest is pretty self explanatory.
Now, if you haven't already, you so need to check out the blogs of the following Instant Gardners and Bloom Brigade:
Copics: Sunflower: YR14, Y15, Y13, E44 Sunflower Center: YG05, E49, E47, E44, E43 Leaves: G17, G14, YG05, E43
That's it for today y'all. Be sure to stop by tomorrow. I have a super fun card to share that I made for my Father-in-law's 87th birthday.
Happy Stamping!

Oh, Tosh, what an amazing card! I love sunflowers too, and I love your coloring and fussy cutting. I almost did another layer too with tole and decided against it. Yours is perfect. And what fabulous DP and also the embossing! Beautiful color combination and love the twine and stitching! So glad you were "rescued" by news of this beauty while in traffic. It sure can be frustrating. Thanks for sharing another gorgeous card with us...your work is amazing! Hugs, sweet friend!
Absolutely gorgeous! I love what you've done with this image! Your coloring and the dimension you've created is amazing! The back drop for your image is lovely, as well. That sponging on the embossed oval is the perfect landing spot for this beautifully colored image. LOVE all the little details, too! Superior card!
Ack! LA traffic is no fun! We drive out there every Sunday and it's really no picnic!
I love this creation. You certainly do sunflowers justice. I pinned this and one day, hope to make one half as good. Thanks!
