There are a few challenges at the moment that are asking for Green in their theme and I had it in mind to try and make a card just from green patterned papers. This is what I came up with using the Sunburst Design as my idea and I rather like the result.
The papers were all from my stash and collected as freebies in magazines (mostly Making Cards)
The snowdrop was also from design paper ( a magazine freebie from long ago) and came with two strips of sentiments There were three flowers ( each set within a frame) and a further matching outline flower which I fussy cut and adhered slightly off centre to give the illusion of more petals and leaves.
Below is a picture of the inside of the card using one of the other flowers in the set.
There are lots of tutorials on You Tube on how to make various Sunburst designs. It is one of my favourites for using up my numerous scraps of papers. I can't throw any away however small!!.

Hi, ValeryAnne! Your verdant sunburst is a fantastic design tip for using left over papers! It's beautiful! I especially like the interior pattern - so lovely and delicate. The layers are beautiful! It's always fun seeing how crafters are inspired by the Mood Board at the Beautiful Blossoms Challenge.
