I wanted to play in the CAS watercolor challenge this month because it is sunflowers. I love them and actually do have stamps and one die of them.  Unfortunately I don't know the name of the company the die came from. I watercolored the flowers and leaves and little sprigs with zigs and water. I added a little detail with a zig pen on the leaves. The centers were rubbed with Nuvo crystal gloss dark walnut drops.  I used a sizzix stitched squares die to cut out the window and the sentiment is Sweet & Sassy. The little squiggles are Poppy Stamps Stitched Pumpkin Leaves and the leaves are Memory Box.  Be kind to one another.

That is a perfect sentiment to go with your gorgeous sunflowers. They remind me of how I would buy a packet of seeds each year and the kids wouldplant than against the fence and place markers saying who had planted them. Then we would wait and se whose sunflower grew to be the tallest. Simple fun had by all. Hugs Mrs A.
