Sunny Flowers For Mother

As well as their usual challenges, Outlawz has a special set of challenges to celebrate it's 7th Birthday. One of them is to make a project using a free image from SheepSki Designs.

DSC_0538(watermarked)
Materials used:Sheepski Designs - Sunflowers (available by email request for members of the Outlawz Challenges)
Clear Impressions Floral Flourish set (from Creative Stamping Magazine)
Graphic 45 - French Country 6x6 pad
Distress Oxide inks - Peeled Paint and Fossilized Amber
X-Press It card
Copic pens
yellow organza ribbon
yellow eyelets
black archival ink pad
A5 card blank


The image is printed on X-Press It card and coloured with Copics. The background is made with the distress oxides applied with a sponge and lightly spritzed. The image is attached to a mat from the Graphic 45 pad with eyelets.

The topper is attached to the card front and the sentiment stamped underneath. Finally the bow is added.

The Outlawz Challenge does not stipulate that you have to create a birthday card so I hope a Mother's Day one is acceptable.

Thank you for dropping in. Take care.

  1. Hi Pippa! Such a gorgeous card with your coloring and layers!! The sunflower centers look so realistic, it is like I could just reach out and touch them and feel the little seeds. So glad you are participating in the Outlawz Birthday Celebration!! Hope you win a prize!
    Hugs!
