Sunflowers bloom in Summer – you can picture the bright yellow flowers against a bright, blue sky, right? I’ve created a card that drops a golden sunflower into a modern, Fall-themed card. The card is very simple and very clean, but there’s something really special about this Fall-friendly sunflower. Here’s my card:
I cropped the large, detailed sunflower with the Sunflowers Dies. These dies have been around for quite some time, but the shiny foil and warm colors give this flower a new look. Here’s a look at the Sunflowers Dies:
The shiny sunflower looked so chic, so I built a clean, modern backdrop for the flower I could have added gold strips or embellishments or even gold trim, but I really love the simple, clean look of these panels behind the flower.
The sentiment on my card if from the Very Best Occasions stamp set, new in Stampin’ Up!’s July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. Here’s a look at the incredible sentiments in this stamp set, which is sold separately or as a part of the Very Best Occasions Bundle:
Don’t these colors work well with the gold sunflower? If you like the warm browns and greens on this card as much as I do (two are 2021-2023 In Colors), I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
