FS270, MASKED SUNFLOWERS

Photo Details

Poster: Marleygo

Ali...Congratulations! Your gallery is pure delight! I chose this card of yours to CASE: Birthday by Albongo at Splitcoaststampers. It is so lovely! I adore the purple and your flowers are just extraordinary!

I wanted to try the masking of the flowers like Ali did. I stamped the top and bottom flower and then masked them for the center flower. At first, I watercolored them, but did not like how it turned out. So, I redid them with SU Markers. I placed them on a panel that was punched with a MS punch around the page punch. I added Early Expresso ribbon and scored lines on either side of the ribbon.

What do you think?

Nicley done, this is a great sunflower image. The lattice framing is a great touch.

You brought sunshine on a cloudy day . . . isn't that the way of the song goes? It's actually a BEAUTIFUL day today - sunny - 70 degrees and I'm luvin' it, except for zee little critters that want to make me itch!! Guess you can't have it all. Your sunflowers are awesome and great job on the masking. I always forget to do that!
