This amazing flower was amongst the pack that I got from AliExpress and I used Scarlet, Orange and Yellow for the petals and a teeny amount of Brown for the centre.
Once again there was panic when the colours began to pool together!
I wasn't sure about the way the centre turned out initially but it grew on me as I waited for it to dry.
I randomly added some small seed beads to the middle.
Opted for no sentiment as think the bold flower makes enough of a statement on it's own!
I had some odd bits of coloured card which were a good match for the shades I used so after cutting out my flower with a stitched square die I layered it onto them.
A few Brusho ink splats on the base card and done!

We have rather a nasty stormy day here and normally wouldn't consider venturing out - but lack of cooking facilities mean we don't have a lot of choice so it will be coat/hat/boots/gloves for our daily meal out trip!
Have a great day whatever you're doing and thanks for visiting! x

Wow, that looks great, I'm very thrilled. I have to try it again, because the first time my colors always went under the template. That did not give a nice picture.
It's beautiful and eye catching and doesn't need a sentiment. I've never got on well with stencils. It's very bad of people to be leading you astray, now you'll have to get more!
Gorgeous Viv. I have loads of stencils that I haven’t used but seeing your card is inspiration to get them out and have a play x
Wow great colours
An impressive sunflower
Gorgeous colours Viv, its a beautiful flower that makes you card suitable for so many occasions.
We have the high winds and storms here, so a stop in day its been for me .
Have a good weekend.

Absolutely stunning Viv. A masterpiece on how to use Brushos and stencils together. I love the colours and especially how you did the centre. Nope it doesn't need a sentiment....glorious as it is x.
Hope this storm passes soon and hope the daily meal trip out will soon be dry and not so windy x.
Gorgeous stenciled sunflower with your Brushos, Viv. I love how you added the colored layers of narrow framing and a few Brushos splatters. I agree, no sentiment needed. A beautiful work of art, my friend. TFS and joining us at CAS Stencil Card Challenge. Hugs..Nancy

I think the colors blended together beautifully. And the beads added to the centre is a nice touch too. And no sentiment needed, personally I wouldn’t be able to chose a spot for one either.
Wow, wow and more wow. Those colours are terrific . Love, love love. Hugs Mrs A.

This sunflower is altogether gorgeous Viv and I love the way the colours have mixed a bit, and the seed beads in the centre give it some texture too, and the two coloured layers work well too. x
