Trio of Celebrate Sunflowers cards with video & an easy highlighting technique!
Look at these gorgeous sunflower cards! They were a big hit at my Card Clubs this month. They could chose between Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade and Calypso Coral ink for their sunflower.
We sponged each sunflower leaving the center without color except for a bit of Crumb Cake Blends marker. I know it might not be realistic but I like the pop of White in the center for brightness.
Then we used White Craft ink and Blender pens to highlight a few petals here and there on the sunflowers. It's super easy! I created a video below so you can see how it's done.

Next is a sweet card made by Candy who also used this bundle:
Her colors include Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon & Pumpkin Pie.
She textured the Lost Lagoon layer with the Plaid 3D embossing folder. The circle is about 2 1/2″ around and is a Stylish Shapes die-cut as well as the greeting die-cut.

And lastly today is a perfectly Autumn card made by Gwen. It’s her first time swapping! She did a wonderful job!
Each of these cards features the More Than Autumn bundle and they’re all so unique. It’s a pretty big bundle with a wide variety of images and dies. She used the new Gathering Together specialty paper seen here. She added a center strip under her images that’s 1 3/4″ wide. Cajun Craze with Very Vanilla are her card stock colors. The greeting die-cut is from the Perennial Postage dies.
Thanks for stopping in; I hope you enjoyed the card swaps today. I’ll share more soon!
The colors include Gray Granite & Early Espresso with White. I chose these colors to match the Toile designer paper from the Holiday Catalog. See it here.
The view above shows the card open. The card starts as a normal 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ card base but has two extra score lines. See the measurements and directions here on the free project sheet. Click on this link to download or print it.
I made multiples of this card for an online swap I participated in. I love swapping and making multiples of the same card.
