Today's card is for the The Paper Players sketch this week which is designed by Nance.
I really really love this new sunflower stamp - I just think that I really really need to figure out how to use it. I'll be scoping out some galleries for this!!! I tried stamping the image on watercolour paper but the detailed lines didn't show up. I tried quite a variety of different things before deciding to use one colour and not colour anything in. However, I liked how the petals turned out when I did added ink with the aqua-painter (I just totally botched the inside of the flower) - so I cut out the petals to raise up above the stamped image.
Hope there are loads of things for you to smile about in your life today! Thanks for taking the time to stop by for a visit.

Stunning card! I love sunflowers almost as much as butterflies. This is really pretty.
