You are my Sunshine

Happy Saturday Paper Maniacs!!
Have you been enjoying all the awesome ideas and inspiring projects on the PaperManiac BLOG this week? I know that I have been enjoying them all. Stop by to check out the projects, and, while you are there, be sure to become a follower. We are having a HUGE, and I mean HUGE 1st birthday celebration starting on the 10th!! You won't want to miss this party! :-)
Here's a card made with the new Flourishes Sunflowers stamps! Oh how I adore these huge sunflower stamps!! They are so much fun to color.
This is really a C-A-S card, one layer-stamped right onto the base. I used a small patch of Core'dinations Cosmo Cricket basics for the grass. I sanded the embossed area and that seemed to give this piece some nice details. I tied some vanilla stitched ribbon around the bottom and cut tiny grass strips across the top. I then scrunched them in different directions to give it a more realistic feel. The sunflowers are colored with Copics and I used Sassafrass buttons on the centers. The sentiment also comes from the Sunflower stamp set.
Hope you all have a very safe holiday weekend!!
