Flower Sand Art — 3-Color Sand on 5.5x8.5 Cardboard

Bring a garden of color to life with this compact Flower Sand Art panel. Designed on a sturdy 5.5 x 8.5 inch cardboard surface, the piece uses three distinct sands to create a vibrant flower motif with depth and texture.

What makes this flower sand art unique

• Textured, tactile result: the granular surface offers a real-life, hand-crafted feel that flat paints can’t replicate.
• Compact, display-ready size: at 5.5x8.5 inches, it fits on desks, shelves, or a simple frame for a gallery-style display.
• Versatile presentation: use as a standalone piece or slip it into a greeting-card format for a memorable, handmade gift.

Who it's for

Tips for best results

1. Plan your color blocks from light to dark to maximize depth within the flower design.
2. Work slowly and evenly, sprinkling sand in small amounts to avoid flooding areas with color.
3. Let the sand settle after finishing the design; lightly tap the panel to settle any stray grains.
4. Display as-is or frame to extend its life as a centerpiece or gift tag.
