Best Wishes Sunflower

Happy Saturday, peeps!  I have a sweet country-style card for three challenges today!  Have you ever seen a red sunflower? Here's a photo (not my photo, just a sample!!!):


The FarmQuest challenge this month asks for sunflowers, and the Color Throwdown challenge has some lovely fall colors, so I thought I'd combine both, along with the Just Add Ink sketch for my card today. First, the challenges:


I pulled out some older stamps and went to work:



I stamped Buffalo Check in Mellow Moss, then added a Very Vanilla panel diecut with the Radiating Stitches die.  The sunflower from Painted Harvest was stamped in Cajun Craze and Crumb Cake, with Mellow Moss leaves.  I used a Stamp Simply sentiment on the front as well as the inside.  Natural Wavy Trim and some twine was used for the embellishment, which works well with the Crumb Cake card base:


I added a couple more leaves under the bow:


and the inside:


Thanks so much for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

  3. I have seen red sunflowers - but only as cut flowers, not a full field of them. Isn't this one magnificent?
    I love yours, too - and that wonderful buffalo check!

  9. I just LOVE this LeAnne! There is something so simple about the design yet the check background is the perfect backdrop for that sunflower (great in rusty red btw) and I love the rope/twine trim. This card is a winner in my book!
