TLC402 ~ Layered Scallops ~ (11/05/12) by joan ervin

FS300 {11/4/12} Happy 300th Birthday! Jen Mitchell {aka jenmitchell} Featured Stamper
What a wonderful gallery just loaded with the most fabulous creations!
I used this lovely card of JenÂ’s as my inspiration for todayÂ’s CAS and TLC challenges: Simple Sunflower by jenmitchell at Splitcoaststampers
The pinterest inspiration photo reminded me that mums are fall flowers. The colors in the photo allowed for the use of red, yellow and green. I used three different punches for the flower that I punched out in yellow and then used a water brush dipped in SU Raspberry Ripple to color the petals. I added a Sizzix tattered leaf. The center is a 1/4” strip of green card stock, snipped and quilled. I used a Sizzix scallop die and layered the positive and negative cuts in the border.
I like the idea of no sentiment because it would take away from the focal point and the flecks in the handmade paper scalloped border.

Your mum is prettier than any in my garden! I love how you colored it and the wonderful center. I agree w/ the no sentiment, this beauty speaks for itself.

Angela, your card is soooo beautiful. You do CAS like no other. What a tribute to Jen this week. I tried my hand at caseing one of Jen's CAS cards, but it didn't come out this awesome! Hugs!
