Sunflower Elegance


With this creation for Sunday Stamps, I have started down a new path:  working with a vivid background of cardstock, emphasizing something in the pattern by embossing or fussy-cutting.  Lisa Somerville who designs for Divinity Designs, created a sunflower card recently from the company's "Vintage Sunflowers A2 Card fronts."  It was so striking and then I learned that the card fronts are available in packs.  (I bought 2 packs!)  Dry embossing the image and emphasizing a pattern feature by fussy cutting is a new technique for me, but I am going to work with it for awhile. Deciding on the next one will require some thinking.
