this little release is just what you need to get you through the last dregs of summer and get ready for some warm, cozy fall time! ha!
oh how I love this new stamp set and stencil!! just wait until you see it all! but in the mean time, check out what we're working with today: Sunflower Days + coordinating Dies, and the Gingham Stencil.
you can totally create a project life type spread, gift tags and, of course, cards! all of the new sets will be available for purchase right now, right here!
for this card, I wanted to use rich, bold colors in the background, so the sunflowers really popped!
this was so fun to make!
I started by using Distress Oxide Inks in Blueprint Sketch, Peacock Feathers and Wilted Violet and ink blended them all together!
then I used some pearlescent embossing paste and the cute Hardwood Stencil to finish the background!
it's hard to see, but I finished off the card with some matte light yellow sequins and heat embossed the sentiment! adorable!
