Back again with my second GDT card for House Mouse and Friends. This card consists 4 of my favorite things: House Mouse stamp, sunflowers, gingham ribbon and my favorite paper Graphic 45 French Country collection.
I thought an easel card would be fun to do with this image called Spring Blossoms. The stamp cuts off part of the pot so I let that be my starting point. My color scheme came from this beautiful DP. The sunflower accents are actually two fussy cut flowers from the DP. The small flower is a daisy punched flower and a jewel from my stash. The "soil" is Flower Soft. I like to add Flower Soft for the interesting rich texture it provides. I used CM oval cutters and a punch for the yellow scalloped oval. The verse is from a CTMH Friendship stamp set.
No struggling with this card. It was fun and everything easily came into place. I so love when that happens. Why don't you ink up one of your HM stamps and join us here for our Flower Challenge. While you are there, check out the inspiration the DT provided. There's a lot of gorgeous this week.
