Hello Sunflower Brushstroke Alphabet Card by Holly
Hi everyone, it’s Holly here today. I hope you are all having a great week so far. Today I have a cute card using the new Sunflower set and it’s coordinating dies. My sentiment is created with the new Brushstroke Alphabet Uppercase and Lowercase sets.
I started with a piece of Bristol cardstock and I heat embossed it with the Gingham Background Stamp using VersaMark ink and clear embossing powder. I left parts of the image unstamped to give it a rough texture. I added some Salty Ocean Distress Oxide Ink and created a watercolor look to the background. Then I die cut the panel using a large stitched Rectangle and adhered it to a top-folding, A2 size card base.
I stamped the sunflower images onto some Neenah Solar White cardstock using inks from Altenew and Lawn Fawn. Then I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I adhered them to the background with some foam tape. The sentient is stamped using some VersaFine Black Onyx ink on Neenah Solar White. I lined up the images from the Uppercase and the Lowercase set. I used my scissors to fussy cut the sentiment out and adhered it with some foam tape. I wanted a little bit of sparkle so I added some mixed sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.
I hope you are enjoying the new release as much as I am!
Thanks for stopping by today!
Holly

Stamp layering flowers made simple. Start with the outermost layer, the leaves, and build up from there. Use a different ink color for each layer to create lots of depth and dimension. Finish off each flower with the veins of both the petals and leaves. Combine with the coordinating dies to create an even more layered look.
