Tiled Sunflower

Happy Monday all! I know, those two words don't go together!! I'm spoiled and don't work Mondays, so they usually aren't too bad for me!! If you consider cleaning, errands and laundry not bad!! 

I had Club yesterday-great day with My Girls as usual!! This first card was inspired by Glenda Travelstead, a fellow demo and part of the SUDSOL group. She shared a class she did using the Simply Scored. Her card used the Sunflower and the tile technique. Of course I had to do that!!! Here is my version that the Girls did:


The first step on this card is to cut your Whisper White card stock 4" x 5". Not a usual layer size for me, but it works best for scoring. Score it both directions on every inch mark. Next step, ink the Sunflower and stamp over the recessed lines, not the raised lines. Oh, use the smaller end of the stylus for deeper lines also. We inked the Sunflower first with Daffodil Delight, then added some More Mustard with a Sponge Dauber right were the petals meet the center. In the center we added Chocolate Chip on the outside, and Early Espresso in the very center. Huff on your stamp to refresh the ink, then stamp. 

The tiled image is layered onto a slightly larger Daffodil Delight layer. At the bottom we tied around a Chocolate Chip Scallop Dots Ribbon. This one is done with the dots down, it looked great either way. The saying is from a new to me word set, Friendly Phrases. It is stamped in Early Espresso on Whisper White, punched with the Large Oval Punch, then layered onto a Daffodil Delight Scallop Oval Punch. The element is attached over the ribbon with dimensionals. Actually, one dimensional split in half-one half on top, on on the bottom. The entire layer is attached to the Early Espresso card base.

Thanks for stopping by today!! I'll have two more cards from Club to share this week, and hope to get some more stamping in!! Have a GREAT week all!!
