Sunny Sunflowers!

Hello all of my crafting friends. I do hope your day is filled with sunshine. It is supposed to be sunny today here in St. Louis, but the rain is moving in on Saturday, so of course that will make the ground perfect for planting real sunflowers.

My card today is clean and simple design because sometimes all you need is a little simple stamping to create something beautiful. I love the black and white look and when we add a little color, everything just pops!

  • Begin with a 5½ x 8½” piece of Basic Black cardstock. In landscape position, (aka the long side), score at 4 ¼”. Fold and burnish.  This will create a card base.
  • Cut a 4 x 5 ¼” piece of Basic White cardstock and stamp the large Sunflower from the Sunflowers bundle in Memento Black ink half off the left edge twice, one at the top and one toward the bottom.
  • Stamp another large sunflower on a 4×4 piece of Basic White cardstock and color it with the Daffodil Delight and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends.
  • Use the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine and the coordinating flower die to and crop out the sunflower.
  • Attach the colored sunflower to the left side of the white card panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals and layer it so some of the flower hangs off the left side.
  • Use paper snips to trim off excess flower.
  • Stamp the greeting in Memento Black ink.
  • Cut a 4 x 5 ¼ piece of white cardstock and layer it to the inside panel.  Decorate as desired.

Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time, be blessed, Renae
