Many of you may have already seen the gorgeous inspiration picture for this week over on Just Add Ink, but just in case here it is again.
Aren’t Sunflowers just beautiful. They are so cheery and bright. One of my neighbours has some humungous ones in her front yard at the moment.
To enter this challenge, Just Add Ink 53, all you have to do is create something using this picture as your inspiration. It can be the colours, the flower, or even the feeling you get from the picture.
Now I looovvee Sunflowers but unfortunately Stampin’ Up don’t have a Sunflower image in their current stamp range. Maybe I need to suggest they add one…..lol
So for my card, I’ve gone with some of the colours in the picture, another flower, and the feeling of bright and cheery.
This is what I ended up with.
It’s nowhere near as bright as the picture is but I have used our brightest yellow being Daffodil Delight.
The colour combination I’ve used is from the Colour Coach using Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso (that’s 2 colours from the inspiration) and Cherry Cobbler. I’ve used a past Clean & Simple sketch which is #5 for the layout.
Supplies:
Stamp sets: Greenhouse Garden, Just Believe
Card: Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White, Daffodil Delight Patterns DSP (Brights Pattern Stack)
Ink: Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso
Accessories: Cherry Cobbler brads (Regals pack), Stamp-a-ma-jig, Matt Pack & Paper Piercing tool.
So what do you think?
Till next time….
Those flowers are so pretty!!! Love the colour combination on this one and I just loved the inspiration pic. It is absolutely gorgeous. Great card, Nikki.

This is beautiful! I love the “out of the box” look of your flower. I agree, I’d love to see a sunflower stamp!
A beautiful card, love the colours and this stamp set is still on my wishlist, must rectiy this soon. Thanks for playing at JAI this week.
