Celebrate Sunflowers

Celebrate Sunflowers

I have a very good friend of mine that loves sunflowers.  She has a huge field of them and when they are in bloom, they are so beautiful. I wish I had taken a photo of it.  Therefore, I decided to use the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set with the coordinating Sunflower Dies to make her this simple card.  I have to admit I made this card for her a few months ago so one of the products I used is retired but I have sure you can still recreate this card using your current products.

To make this card, I first cut out the sunflowers in Daffodil Delight card stock using the Sunflower Dies. Before I cut out the outline die, I put a piece of Adhesive Sheets on the back.  This is really the. best way to adhere a thin cut  piece of card stock onto another without making a mess of glue everywhere.  I also did this with the leaves using Garden Green card stock.   Then I cut out the centers of the sunflower using Early Espresso card stock and layered everything together.  The Designer Series Paper I used is called In Good Taste.  I love this DSP because it makes the background look a little 3D.   The sentiment is from Here’s A Card which, unfortunately is retired.

  1. This is such a happy card, Susan! My Wesley has been growing sunflowers and they got taller than his house a couple of years ago. Yours is beautiful – and thanks for the tip about the adhesive sheets!
