I love sunflowers! When we lived in Europe we took a road trip through France and saw kilometers of sunflower fields in full bloom. We parked by the road and walked into the fields to have a picnic lunch of wonderful French wine, bread, cheeses, and fruit. I have such fond memories of that day, even after the bees attacked us and we had to run back to our car.
Today, I wanted to make a simple quilt design using my sunflower scraps from the Ornate Garden designer series paper and a coordinating Mint Macaron cardstock that I embossed with the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder. I used the smallest square die (1.75″) from the Stitched Shapes Die set to have a finished look to each square. The squares were large so I ended up making a large 5″ square card. Each square was attached to a piece of Whisper White cardstock cut at 5.25″ x 5.25″. I finished the card by stamping the “Life is better with a friend like you” sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set in Early Expresso ink. Then I attached the Whisper White cardstock to a card base made out of Bumble Bee cardstock cut at 5.5″ x 11.0″ scored at 5.5″.
What do you think? Please leave any comments in the space below.
Happy Stamping!
