A Sunflowery Painted Harvest

Fields of sunflowers seem to magically appear on our Wisconsin landscape in early Fall.  Likewise, the beauty of our Painted Harvest Stamp Set sunflower took us by surprise.  Using a multi-step stamping technique to layer warm fall colors creates our version of the scenic view.

Painted Harvest Sunflower Card

Our card front starts with Crushed Curry Card Stock layered with a strip of Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper over a base of Whisper White.  A bit of background stamping with Cajun Craze Ink makes things interesting.  We secured a piece of the new and very versatile Copper Trim, a must have item, to enhance this creation.  Who needs another circle punch?  We do!  After we stamped with Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze Inks, topped off with a Soft Suede Ink center we punched our flower with the new 2 1/4" Circle Punch.  Perfect!  The leaves tucked behind our sunflower were two-step stamped with Garden Green Ink and punched with our brand new Leaf Punch.  Just to make things interesting, we stamped a Teeny Tiny Wish(es) greeting on Whisper White Card Stock and did some creative punching with the snipable and changeable Classic Label Punch.  Thanks to a handful of Dimensionals, our card turned into a standout!
