FS965 Sunflower Hello
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: suen

 Carol has a very pretty gallery and I chose her Flower Power card for inspiration. I used a similar flower, but changed from an oval to a circle frame and made an emboss resist BG instead of the woodgrain. I stamped the chevron BG with versamark, embossed with white and then dipped the panel in distress inks. The flower circle was cut from cocoa bean and I used a smooshed watercolor BG for the flower petals and sentiment BG. The chevron BG was placed on the cocoa bean card base and everything attached. Here's her card.

That bg is amazing and even more so that you created it with EP and dipped inks - so glad you gave us that info! The blend of colors on the flower and sentiment panel is just as lovely. Good call on using the cocoa as a counterpoint to the other colors.

I would have guessed that you used DSP for the BG...I am so impressed that you made it yourself! Great bold look!

The emboss resist background is absolutely captivating—such a clever twist on Carol’s original design. I love how the warm distress inks and cocoa bean frame create a rich, earthy palette that feels both bold and inviting. The smooshed watercolor adds a beautiful organic touch to the flower and sentiment. A truly inspired CASE!
