Sunflowers have a duel meaning to me living here in Utah. When I first moved to her we had bought a home that did not have a yard. Just dirt and weeds. One of those weeds was a flower that looked a lot like a sunflower. For those of you that live in the area know exactly what I am referring to. Very pretty but a very aggressive weed! The other meaning is the beautiful large flower that is not a weed and produces the yummy sunflower seeds we eat as a snack. I have since put a yard in and no more invasive sunflower weeds but sometime I do miss the pretty flower it produced!
Today's post is a sunflower card made using an embossing folder from the wonderful new Let's Chill release from Simon Says Stamp.
I made this card by inking up the flat side of the embossing folder with a yellow ink. I then added a white piece of card stock and ran it through my die cut machine. I then colored in the center of the flowers with an orange Copic marker to create that sunflower look. I trimmed it down and added to an A2 size card base of smooth white card stock. I die cut the Hello Sunshine sentiment from an orange card stock three times and glued them together for thickness. I then die cut the shadow out of white card stock and added them both to the card and a little sequins to add some sparkle.
I hope you enjoyed the card I made today. Please click on the link I provided to check out more of the Let's Chill release. Also, I have listed and linked all the supplies I used to make this card below for your convenience.
