A Sunny Day Hug

 This week Linda is hosting the color combo challenge at SCS and she has a desert option of sunflowers...  I knew I had the Cajun craze color so I used that for the card base and just made it up as I went a long for the other two colors that I am pretty sure I have never seen before. 

 So, I cut a piece of Arches cold press watercolor paper and started doodling some sunflower shaped daisy type colors loosely on it, splattered it. drug an dry nib through the leaves for veins. and I really did not like it that much the most interesting part of it to me was the center of the large flower.

So my next thought was to add a side view flower to the left to try to fill in the white space and have something there to cut the large flower out of the center maybe.

So I used every die in this blanket stitched set from Pinkfresh studios to take out some of the whole blooper looking parts of the flowers. I just might use that drop piece frame for something later. 

The base here is Cajun craze and I did cut it to A2 and then I mounted the outside frame crooked. ( it was warped) so, when I trimmed off the odd side it did get a little smaller. I fished out that sentiment ( lili of the valley) from the tray on the table and added some Vintage Photo DOX to the edges of it and an yellow brad to the top and added it with some glue dots to the corner. The center panel of blooms are up on foam tape for a little interest and all in all I think this is OK. :) If you'd like to play along this challenge can be found here at SCS, thanks for stopping by.
