Each Sunday Patsy Waggoner (my border buddy) and I (Alison Solven) take turns creating a card using one of our card sketches. I love sketches because all the measurements and layout are illustrated and I just have to decide what stamps, colours and embellishments to add.
I was so excited to see the return of a sunflower stamp set in the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue. The Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle featuring the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set and Sunflowers Dies are gorgeous and when you purchase them together you save 10%.
You can create a card exactly using the sketch layout as I did today or change it up a bit. You can also turn the sketch so if it is a vertical sketch you might want to turn it to be horizontal. Let your imagination run wild!
I love the sentiments included in the set and the mixed font styles. I make tons of celebration and thank you cards so they are perfect for me!

This is a beautiful card. What color did you use for the center of the flower? Did you use two different colors, or is some of from when you stamped the flower?
Thanks so much for your help. I hope to be able to stamp a sunflower today or at least get everything set up to do it.
Thanks so much for answering.
