Rustic Sunflowers with Brutus Monroe


Hello everyone!  Sunflowers are so...sunny!  We've been having some dark days
here so these sunflowers brighten up everything!  I'll be using products from


I wanted this card to be sunny and bright!  So easy to do with the products I
used.  Let me show you how I made my card!  I started with the stenciled panel
for the background.  I mixed Banana Split and Pumpkin Patch Velveteen
Glazes together. When dry, these Glazes are darker.  So I mixed the 2 
together to get a lighter orange.  I used the X-pattern Stencil on white card stock.


These velveteen glazes dry to an amazing texture!  Next I stamped out my images
onto white card stock using a hybrid black ink.  I wanted to color these images
with my Copic Markers.


I stamped these images twice.


I went through and colored all the leaves first, then the centers of
the sunflowers.


Copic Colors used:  G82, G85, G94, Y02, Y15, Y38, R89
E35, E37, E49, Y26
Once these images were all colored I used the coordinating die
set and cut them out.  I stamped out my sentiment with some
dark brown hybrid ink and die cut it with an oval die.  Just
for added interest I made stitch lines around it with a dark
brown fine marker.


I made an A2 size top folding card base from white card stock.  I die
cut a frame using a piece of plaid paper from the Baked Fresh Paper

I adhered the stenciled panel behind this plaid frame.


I arranged my die cut sunflowers and leaves along the left side of the
panel and along the bottom.  A few were popped up on foam tape while
others were adhered flat.  I popped up my sentiment on foam tape. I
sprinkled some rich orange confetti on my card and it was finished!


I love making brightly colored cards when the weather is dark and gray!
It's a great pick me up!  You can find the products I used at


Thank you so much for stopping by!  I hope I've inspired you to make
a bright and happy card!
