More Sweet Sunflower Alternatives

 I'm seriously kicking myself for not ordering more than one kit from Paper Pumpkin last month.  Sweet Sunflowers is at the top of my all-time favorites list!  Here are some more alternatives I created with this kit---


For this one I mounted the honeycomb die-cut on a piece of Basic Black cardstock and used Crushed Curry for the card base.  The sentiment from Welcoming Window is embossed in Crushed Curry.

On this one I stamped the sunflower in Early Espresso, and the center in Soft Suede.  The petals are colored with Daffodil Delight (dark) and Pumpkin Pie (dark) Stampin' Blends.  The center is filled in with Soft Suede (light).  The foliage is stamped in Mossy Meadow.  "Thank you" is stamped in Early Espresso and the frame is hand-drawn with an Early Espresso Stampin' Write Marker and a ruler.  The card base is Mossy Meadow.  There's a slightly smaller panel of Mossy Meadow embossed with the Timeworn Type Embossing Folder mounted to the card base behind the stamped panel.  Brass butterflies are the finishing touch.

This one uses 1/2 of one of the card fronts from the kit mounted on Mossy Meadow cardstock and embossed with the Timeworn Type EF.  The greeting (Dandelion Wishes) is stamped & embossed in Blackberry Bliss and mounted on Stampin' Dimensionals.  A simple gold twine bow & 3 Brass Butterflies make this card "pop".

Here are some of the extra supplies I added to the kit to create these alternatives:
