Happy Thursday and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Krew Thursday Blog Hop! Today, is a Fall / Autumn theme challenge. I chose to use sunflowers for my card because they are at their peak right at the beginning of fall, and I really wanted to use products from the new Sunflower Fields Suite!

I can’t believe Fall is almost here! It is such a great time of year. There is usually a lot less humidity in New Jersey and the mornings and evenings are much cooler. What is it like where you live?

After scoring and folding a piece of Early Espresso cardstock, I embossed a piece of Cajun Craze cardstock using the Sunflower 3D embossing folder.

I cut a piece of Sunflower Fields DSP and adhered it to an Early Espresso mat. I die cut one large and two small sunflowers and leaves using Daffodil Delight, Old Olive and Early Espresso cardstock. I used the rectangular die to cut a piece of Early Espresso cardstock for the back of the sentiment. After stamping the sentiment on Cajun Craze cardstock, I adhered it using dimensionals.

For the inside of the card I stamped a sunflower and the sentiment using Early Espresso ink.

I finished off the card by adding three Old Olive Glossy Garden Dots.

For the front of the envelope, I stamped a sunflower in the corner of a Basic White Medium White Medium Envelope using Early Espresso ink.

Save

I added a strip of Sunflower Fields DSP to the back of the envelope.
