Heartfelt Autumn Sunflowers Card

Hello, Friends!  Welcome to the Heartfelt Creations September 2019 Alumni Hop!  Today I have a sweet and fresh Autumn Sunflowers card to share with you.  This 5″ x 7″ card is a quick and easy one to make but packs a real visual punch.

Note: you will find a supply list for this card at the bottom of this post below the signature.

Heartfelt Autumn Sunflowers Card: How to Make it

  • Begin by creating a 5″ x 7″ kraft top fold card base with a 1/2″ spine.
  • Then cut a 4 7/8″ x 6 7/8″ panel of green cardstock.
  • Now die cut the Intricate Swirl Frame from cream cardstock.
  • Next, cut a 3 1/4″ x 5 1/4″ panel of Sweet Peony Design paper.  Back with dimensionals, then attach inside the intricate frame.
  • Now adhere dimensionals to the back of the Intricate Swirl Frame and adhere to the green cardstock layer.
Heartfelt Autumn Sunflowers Card: The Details

  • Stamp 3 sets of Classic Sunflowers using Saffron Archival Ink.
  • Sponge the petals and centers of the stamped flowers with additional Saffron Archival Ink and Adirondack Premium Dye Ink.
  • Now die cut the flowers with the Classic Sunflowers Die.
  • Then shape the petals with the Deluxe Tool Shaping Kit.
  • Assemble the flower layers with hot glue.
  • Mist the flowers lightly with Ranger Perfect Pearls Sunflower Sparkle and Bronze.

  • Stamp the Lush Lilac sentiment in Olive Archival Ink.

    These are beautiful sunflowers! They are wonderful on your card. I have not gotten them because I’m not sure how to stamp that large stamp and then cut out the flowers. Your card is inspiring.
