Muse



Tracey' stunning CAS card over at Muse this week is sooo gorgeous that I just had to give it a go right away .Alas no palm trees, but I was inspired by her colours orange,yellow,green and brown , layout and flowers .I love colouring this sunflower by Clearly Besotted and my favourite technique is to use ink pads and blender pens on it.I used SU lucky limeade and memento bamboo for the leaves and spiced marmalade and mustard seed distress inks for the flower head and for the centre of the flower head I used a SU brown marker and did tiny dots all over so hopefully it wouldn't be too flat looking.

I fussy cut it out and  popped it up on a panel as Tracey has done but my panel is slightly larger:)
I stamped a sentiment from Avery Elle in the matching orange ink on a banner (also like Tracey's card,just reversed the colours!) and finally added  a few small perfect pearls.

P.s nearly forgot will be ading this to Pixie Crafty snippets Challenge too as if I am fussy cutting anything out I tend to squeeze the image on to whatever scraps of card that are lying  about!
Thanks for taking the time to look
