apple of my eye

Another card for the Sunflowers Challenge at DD. A while back I had been playing with the shape you see here and then never used it, as the card I was thinking about just wasn’t working. I set it aside thinking it would be used at some point. The PP is something I inked a while ago and again didn’t use but I liked how it looked as a partial background on this yellow note card. After adding the shaped piece using foam tape the card developed from there. Yesterday I stamped several sunflowers both larger and smaller but only used one of the larger ones. After adding a few details to these 3 small ones, I fussy cut around them. The apple stamp is from an old StampinUP set and again I had stamped it for another project but didn’t use it. I wondered if it would work as part of a harvest basket, decided it would and went from there. The sunflowers are all GKD stamps and I used foam tape so I had room to add leaves. Leaves are from an old die for which I didn’t keep the name, but suspect it would be either Spellbinders or Sizzix. The small die cut floral is from an unbranded die which I cut up and glued flat. I stamped and added the apple sentiment at the bottom. I did use a Sakura glitter pen over the words and it looks better in reality than on the photo. That said, I am not sure I like this card, but they often grow on me.

I really appreciate your comments and that you find time to stop by.
