I was trying to think of a good background for my Painted Harvest sunflower cards, and I noticed my Burlap Background stamp on my shelf, so I pulled that out and used it for these sunflower cards… and I love how it lends the perfect fall, rustic touch to these cards! Find the Burlap Background stamp on page 165 of your 2017-2018 annual Stampin' Up! catalog or HERE online for clear mount and HERE online for wood mount.
I inked the Burlap background stamp in Crumb Cake ink and stamped one of the Whisper White panels, then went ahead and stamped a 2nd one without reinking.. so you'll see the variations in lighter and darker burlap backgrounds in this post.
I also added strips of Painted Harvest designer paper to each card as well as Glitter Enamel Dot embellishments.
I had fun playing with different ribbon embellishments, different cardstock colors for the base card and different colors for stamping the sunflower. Scroll down to see the VIDEO in this post with more info about stamping the sunflower.
The You are Remarkable greeting is found in the Remarkable You stamp set (pg 142 annual catalog) and the Thankful greeting is found in the Painted Harvest set #144783.
The sunflowers are punched with the Starburst Punch and layered onto Daffodil Delight circles.
The leaves are all stamped in Emerald Envy ink on Lemon Lime Twist cardstock, then punched with the Leaf Punch. The leaf punch is part of the 10% off bundle: Painted Harvest Bundle #146021
Happy Birthday is a greeting found in the Happy Birthday Gorgeous set, #143662.
Using Black Rhinestone jewels in the center of the sunflower is a fun way to dress up the card, too!
