The minute I saw the inspiration photo at Altenew's March Challenge I knew I had the perfect image.
All I needed to do was get it stamped and colored. What do you think?
The Dancing Sunflowers were colored with the accompanying stencils using Altenew inks. The card took a couple of turns during the process and for a few of them I held my breath. I
wanted needed to make a colorful background so I cut a mask of the sunflower and used brushes to add the pink, green and yellow around it. Whew! I liked it but thought maybe some splatters would add to the look. I held my breath and used Altenew's Jet Black Spray with a paint brush. So far so good. Now if the sentiment that comes with the set stamps okay. It did but I thought the black needed something to tie it all together so I added a tiny black border. Finally done and everything worked out beautifully IMHO.
Thanks for dropping by. I hope you week goes well.

Your big sunflower is so pretty. You did a great job masking the sunflower and adding the pretty inks around it, plus the black splatters. Hope you didn't hold your breath too long, as it turned out beautifully. :)
