The Celebrating Sunflowers bundle creates some fabulous cards. I have three more cards to share with you today.
This card is shades of gray and black. I like the way this card turned out. The base is Basic Gray with layers of Basic Black and Smoky Slate. The shades of gray are so elegant. One thing to note about making this card. You want to stamp the words before you emboss with Dainty Diamonds. You get a much better image then if you stamp after you have embossed.
I think I have told you how much I love daisies so I had to use the sunflower to create a daisy. I stamped the flower with Smoky Slate and colored the center with Daffodil Delight Blends. The delicate leaves that you can die cut using the dies from this set are so pretty and add such a lovely touch.
This one is one of my favorite cards I have made. Buffalo Check is perfect for a background and these sunflowers make me swoon! It took my a while to get the colors right in the flowers. I used blends to color it. I started with Real Red towards the center. Then I added some Pumpkin Pie, Mango Melody and Daffodil Delight for the petals. I used Crumb Cake for the center and Old Olive the the leaves.
Sunflowers are a great choice in flowers. They are my husband's favorite. I am drawn to them because of his love for them. I think I did them justice in these cards! I hope I have inspired you to create some of your own!
Happy Stampin'!

I would never have thought to use grey for sunflowers/daisies, but the cards are stunning and rich! Thanks for opening my eyes to something different!
You are welcome! I hope you have fun creating!
