GDT and Sunflowers Smiles

 Morning and can I just thank everyone for the lovely comments you leave on my blog posts and welcome to my new followers.

My post today is for a Guest Design spot at Star Stampz and the challenge is Favourite Colour Combination.As I no longer have a printer Helen kindly sent me the images Sunflower Smiles in two sizes so I made two cards.

The first one is a Diamond Point card using the image coloured with promarkers,and three  papers from Paper Favourites pad Bohemian Flowers.


The second card used the image coloured with promarkers,papers from Crafts and You Design Blossom Meadow and a Spellbinders doily die.
