The Card Concept: Summer Harvest

Hello! The Card Concept is back folks, although they had a summer edition. We

begin again with fall,

And we have this challenge photo to inspire.

My inspiration came from the sunflowers, and this is my card,

Marybeth Lopez included this embossed sunflower in her recent 12 Kits package, and I

saved it for this post. Magnificent Sunflower by Memory Box was embossed and ready

to paint! I chose to use my Metallic watercolors and call this card, Mixed Media.

The luminance is amazing! Sentiment by a new stampset called Beatitudes 1 by

Stamp Simply.

Background paper: Memory Box.

The Card Concept designer have some gorgeous inspiration for you. Be

sure to read our rules, and come have fun with our fall challenge!

See you in the lineup!

Card Concept Challenge: Sunflower Serenade

Hello! It's time for a new challenge at the Card Concept, and we have 

this gorgeous inspiration photo for you!

Sunflower Serenade!

The huge sunflowers definitely inspired my card. This time I combined

watercolors, ink stenciling, and some layers with die cuts and fussy cutting.

I call it, 'Layered Mixed Media'.

Did you know you can mix the styles? A list of them is on 

the Card Concept challenge blog.

My sunflower comes from Deep Red, and is called: Large Sunflower.

PTI: Window Works Die, Hexagon Stencil, and Forest Floor Autumn.

The Card Concept is a 2 week challenge. I can't wait to see how you're inspired!
