Cupcake Inspirations ~ Challenge #515A

It's time for a new challenge at Cupcake Inspirations. For the next two weeks, our challenge is a color inspiration - yellow, brown, black.

Here's my card

When I think of yellow and brown, I think of sunflowers. However, I don't own a sunflower stamp - shocking, isn't it! So, instead, I used STAMPlorations' Helenium Large which I stamped onto watercolor paper with Versafine Onyx Black ink. I added color using Copic markers - E25, Y17. I do realize that when using Copic markers, I should have used Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I was thinking that I wouldn't mind the black ink "bleeding" a bit or maybe I totally forgot that I was intending to watercolor this flower! Anyway, I like the finished product. To complete the card, I cut a black panel to mat the original panel and decided almost at the last minute, to set it askew. For the sentiment, I stamped it using Mint Owl Studio Banner Sentiments and die cut it using Memory Box's Pastry Labels. I used some black embroidery floss to "hang" the label. I placed everything on a kraft A2 card panel.

We'd love to see what yellow, brown and black creations you come up with.
