sunflowers

Sunflowers are so amazing , they grow so easily and the contrast of yellow ,brownish black and green is stunning.
I think the sunflower image complements of my sister Dawn ,makes this card.
I have used the Papertake weekly sketch for inspiration and the colour specs of green, yellow and green from Rosie-D's  challenge and I am trying for the Ooh La lah challenge of bow, bling and button, and have substituted ribbon for the bow as i can't do bows yet.
 Did you hear the YET that means soon thanks to Sharon from Cape Town I will have a Bow magig and will not have to run away from bows .

Have a look at her blog as well http://sharonskardzkorner.blogspot.com/ you will be impressed.
have a good week all
Let me know what you think of this card and any others that catch your fancy

  3. I remember these sunflowers from a parcel waaaaay back... nice to see that you are not so addicted to the stamps that you are ignoring all the other options! Nice photos too. Looking forward to seeing the view for myself soon. xxx

  4. Oh Wendy, what a delightful, sunny card. Love the new background (you know I love changing mine from time to time..lol). Your bowmagig will be posted this week. I was just a bit busy this weekend - sorry! I need to take pics to include with them, but it's easy! Thanks for the nice mention re my blog, very sweet of you. AND, I must definitely go and visit my sister in Gonubie. The view of the Valley in the background of your pic makes me want to fly there right now! Take care, hugs Sharon x
