I've been looking at Pinterest again and seen a gorgeous card that I traced back to SplitCoastStampers. Funny, I'm a member but haven't been on the site for ages! Now, I did change up the card quite a bit... didn't use ribbon, didn't use any die cuts, used a different border punch, different stamps, different embossing folder, yep, a lot of changes. I think the only similarity at this point is the general layout.
Such a nice clean design. I like the simpler cards as people generally seem to be more inclined to make a card like it. So, if you do Pinterest, pin away! The stamps are all from Red Rubber Designs. I used the Sunflower set and the Joyful Hello set.
I colored with Copics and added some faint bling with the Stardust Clear Gel pen. I tried to get a pic of it in the center flower. The border punch is by Fiskars and it was a bit difficult to use with the thickness of the card stock. I had to kinda baby my punching so that I wouldn't break the punch. Now that this is done I think I may have a use for it...
Today we have dental appointments in Nogales, Mexico. We'll start with breakfast at IHOP on the Arizona side then walk across and go 2 1/2 blocks in to the dental office. We'll be done by noon and back across by 1 in the afternoon. I hope to work on my Christmas projects when we get back. I'm using a stamp set by Inky Antics called Snowman Soup and have hit a real brain block. Bummer.

I have always loved your sunflower cards and this one is no exception - great job.
Gorgeous card Carol. Sunflowers are my favorite. I really like that background to. Isn't Pintrest amazing for ideas?
I love your card. I agree that the layout is great and could be used again and again.
