Hi friends. Today I have a new video tutorial for you on how to create some beautiful handmade flowers using the Black Eyed Susan Strip die from Cheery Lynn Designs.
I love both the traditional look and also bright and modern. You can have either one with this flower as you can see in my samples today. I love the versatility of this flower.
The color palettes I used on my cards were inspired by the April and May Ribbon Club Assortments from Really Reasonable Ribbon. Each assortment contains 9 styles and a total of 18 yards of ribbon.

Here are three samples of flowers created with the Black Eyed Susan Strip die from Cheery Lynn Designs.
For the traditional yellow and brown flower, I inked the edges of the petals. For the other two, I used two colors of cardstock along with white and on the white petals I inked a script background stamp using matching ink colors and created some texture that way. I also inked the edges of the petals.
I will be demonstrating how to make the traditionally colored Black Eyed Susan in my tutorial below.

If you liked the video, I would love to have you head on over to YouTube by clicking the YouTube link in the bottom right corner of the video above, and then click thumbs up and leave me a comment. I love to hear from you. Be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel as well.
Other products I used in the video are Quilled Creations Quilling Tool Set to roll the flower center, and Art Institute Glitter Designer Dries Clear Adhesive, 2-Ounce.
The card below was created using the center piece only of the Black Eyed Susan. I think it looks a little like the purple clover weeds you see growing in fields in the summer. Always think outside the box with your dies so you can get even more use out of them!
