I love this festive layout at this week's Hand Stamped Sentiments #350! BUT, I'm veering off Christmas today, lol. I just couldn't stop seeing a lovely big sunflower up there, with stems and leaves sprouting from the bottom! I did a standard-sized card, too - I'm such a rebel! I think Im finally starting to hit on the secret to successfully coloring in larger images with blends - go lighter, not darker! This allows much more detail to shine through, and doesn't look all blotchy and over-saturated, as I've produced before, sigh. It kept this sunflower cheer, at least!

Rebel or no, this is a lovely card in the homespun tradition. The coloring is spot on too. Excellent designing “outside of the lines”!

I love the sunflower as the main part of the sketch! I know winter is coming, but I still want to keep using that beautiful flower! Thank you for joining us at HSS!
