Hello, Dear Friend

DTGDKJ_2013aug1


Hi everyone! I have a card using the recently released LJD Splendid Sunflower set. You don’t need much else when you use this gorgeous image.

I started with a Sweet Tooth card stock base, which I covered with an image from LJD Art Expression Text stamped with Black Licorice ink. I added a Blu Raspberry card stock layer and then stamped the leaves from LJD Splendid Sunflower with Gumdrop Green ink on a Sweet Tooth card stock panel. The sentiment is from LJD Blissful Butterflies, also stamped with Black Licorice ink. The sunflower was stamped on a Die-namics LJD Splendid Sunflower die cut using Lemon Drop ink for the petals and Kraft ink for the center and is popped up on foam. I added some shading to the petals and leaves with Copic markers. To finish it off I tied some baker’s twine around in a bow.

I stamped another sentiment from LJD Blissful Butterflies on the inside.
