Hello! Today’s card features the Celebrate Sunflowers bundle. This set can be found on page 13 of the 2020- 2021 catalog. I have a field of sunflowers behind our home and I love watching them sway in the wind. One of my daughters has always called these “happy flowers”. Isn’t that the best description?
I made two of these cards. One in Just Jade and one using Basic Black.
Let’s get started:
~ Cut a piece of Just Jade card stock at 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″. Score each end at 2-1/8″. Fold those panels towards the center. This is what we call a gate fold.
~ Cut a piece of Bumblebee card stock 1″ x 10″. This is for the band that goes around your card.
~ Cut a piece of Whisper White card stock at 4″ x 5-1/4 inch. This is the inside layer of your card.
~ Next, cut 2 pieces (2″ x 5-3/8″) each from the Flowers For Every Season Designer Series Paper. Adhere these to the front panel of your card. (I am showing two styles of DSP since I made two cards).
~ Stamp and color your images. I stamped one flower with Cinnamon Cider and one with Crumb Cake. I used light and dark Daffodil Delight and Cinnamon Cider Stampin Blends to color in my sunflowers. I used Old Olive ink and a blender pen for the leaves.
~ Using the Sunflower Dies and your Die cutting machine, cut your flowers out.
~ Tightly wrap the Bumblebee card stock you cut for the band around your card and glue overlapped ends together. I also adhered some of my ribbon to this piece. Pop your sunflower up on dimensionals over that seam. I added some Wink of Stella and bling to the center of my flowers to give it a bit of sparkle. The Flowers For Every Season Combo Ribbon Pack is gorgeous, so I tucked a bit under the sunflower.
~ The Flowers For Every Season Memories & More Cards & Envelopes comes with these fabulous stickers. This is the inside of your card.
~ The card set also includes these wonderful sentiment cards. I can’t wait to send them along in my card as a little something extra.
