Toadally Awesome Meets Paradise Palms Dies with Freshly Made Sketch #562

I had some time today to pull out some stamps and dies that I hadn't used yet.  The (Stampin' Up) Paradise Palm tree and grass and sentiment from (Close to My Heart) Toadally Awesome make the 2 horizontal and 1 vertical element as in the Freshly Made Sketch #562.  Spectrum Noir Tri Blend Markers (Light Green Blend, Jade Green Shades and Magenta Blend) Shimmer Brushes (Raspberry, Short Bread and Black) and Nuvo Honey Gold Glitter Drops were used to color the elements.

Here is the fabulous Freshly Made Sketch that inspired my card layout:

Stencil Colored Sunflower Cards

 Recently I took out the October Card Kit from Simon Says Stamp called Sunflower Fields.  It came with stencils to color in the flowers and leaves which I found is much quicker than coloring with markers!  Here are my creations:
