Oh, my goodness, I can't believe I forgot about this card, and I had such fun making it! It's the last of the sunflower cards I made with my Stampendous Sunflowers set. I used quite a few of the stamps on this one, including those little ladybugs. So cute!
I embossed with Ranger Princess Gold, then watercolored with Stampin' Up inks. The Mintay papers include ephemera that can be cut out and used however you desire, and in this case I stamped the sentiment on a little framed piece. It may take a while longer than a CAS card, but I have to say that the design process has always been one of my favorite aspects of card making.
I'm going to send my jar of sunflowers over as a second entry in the Double D Mason Jar Challenge.
Thank you for stopping by! I hope we can do this again real soon.

Out of all the stamps, paper, dies and everything else in my craft room...not one jar stamp. How does that happen? I love your card but I'm partial to sunflowers! Those sweet little ladybugs are what tops it off for me. Let's just say your card just makes me happy!
I just love your card - it is so bright and nothing more cheerful than sunflowers, birds, butterflies and ladybugs! The DSP definitely adds to your gorgeous card! Have a great weekend!

What an adorable card. Absolutely love it!
Pure Happiness, Leslie! Don’t you just love using gold embossing powder? I’ve enjoyed several of your recent creations where you have colored images that have been gold embossed. This one, with all its layers and sweet colors, Makes me feel so lighthearted. Hoping things are going well with the renovations. We have had an unexpected bump with my health. Doctors are trying to figure out a course of treatment to try to keep my bursae from inflaming. More about that privately (when I am able). Thanks for bringing sunshine to my morning with your blue bird of joy! xx
That gold embossing really adds such a lovely glow to the image.
This is such a happy card Leslie! Love all the wonderful elements, especially that jar of sunflowers. Fabulous design, my friend! xx
I just love sunflowers and your jar full is so pretty!
I just want to let you know that I just check out your site and I find it very interesting and informative. Now sharing some information about Quality Japanese Hair Cutting Scissors & Shears
Wow!! What an amazing creation... I'm looking at all those details... Terrific!
Love this Leslie, such a fun and cheerful card! Love the gold embossing, (I haven't embossed in ages!) papers, the little ephemera for your sentiment (so sweet) and of course the little bird and lady bugs! A fabulous entry for the Double D Mason Jar challenge! You always inspire me when you create! Hope you are keeping well!
Super cute! I bought a similar set from this same company and have yet to ink it up. Love the gold embossing and your water coloring is fabulous.
