I love Sunflowers. My dining room is full of them!
I wanted to try a different look and to use the beautiful Local King Rubber Stamp in a different way. I left the card stock in the die and sponged Mushroom ink everywhere except the middle. Then I stamped the Sunflower stamp from (Local King Rubber) in a dark green in the center. I love how it turned out.
I then embossed the pumpkin layer and added it to the green card stock base. I topped it with copper ribbon and added the labels to the top. The brown layer label is up on foam tape. I then sponged and added the flower and leaves along the side and finished it off with copper Nail heads.
I really think that the 5 x 5 format fits the label 14 very well – I really love the way theis card turned out.
