MIM Sending You Sunshine

It has been a long while since I've been able to participate in the Make It Monday Challenge, so it was nice to be able to play today.  This week's challenge was Double Sided Stamped Die Cuts.  I used the Simple Sunflower set and coordinating dies for my card. 

I stamped the sunflowers using Summer Sunrise and Canyon Clay ink.  The leaves were stamped with Ripe Avocado.  I die cut the tag with the Tag Sale #5 die and stamped the sentiment in Fresh Snow ink.  I created the "grassy hills" with the In the Meadow Die Collection.  The background of the card was layered with white cardstock die cut with the Cover Plate: Quatrefoil.  There are pieces of the sunflowers and the leaves that are curled forward to reveal the "double sided stamping".  You can see more creations for this challenge here

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!  SUPPLIES USED:  Stamps- Simple Sunflower (Papertrey Ink); Ink- Summer Sunrise, Canyon Clay, Ripe Avocado, Dark Chocolate, Fresh Snow (Papertrey Ink); Paper- Ripe Avocado, Spring Moss, Dark Chocolate (Papertrey Ink);  Accessories- Tag Sale #5 Die, In the Meadow Die Collection, Cover Plate: Quatrefoil, Simple Sunflower Die Colleciton, Summer Sunrise Swiss Dots ribbon (Papertrey Ink);  Finished card measures 5.5"x4.25"

Beautiful card! a perfect balance between texture, dimension and color. The layout of the sunflowers on the tag is very sweet, and the motion from the In the Meadow Dies combined with the structured Quatrefoil die creates a wonderfully unique backdrop to showcase the flowers. =)
