You are my Sunshine!
I can just hear my Dad singing that old song! And that’s exactly what I thought of and heard in my head the entire time I was making this cheerful and sunny yellow card. I wanted to make this card tonight because I just got some new colors of silk ribbon and I loved this soft and buttery golden yellow color. I immediately thought of this sunflower image on my Cotton Scraps, and away I went:
Isn’t it just so sunny and cheerful? I love it! The image is intentionally off to the left a bit to provide more room for the generous bow done in the 100% Silk Ribbon. A very simply done card, so similar to many I do.
Can you see the Flower Soft I used on the center of the Sunflower? I used Nut Brown and it adds so much texture IRL - wish you could see it! Also a closer look at my ribbon/bow. It’s a double looped bow made on the Bow Easy.

I’m so glad you stopped in today — I truly appreciate it when you do! I’ll be busy the next couple days getting a few posts ready for this week and adding some fun new things to the Stamp Simply Ribbon Store. I’ve added a Page 3 (above my blog header) where I’ll include a few of my most favorite stamping supplies and some other fun things! I also have plans to put kits there and other fun seasonal items. So though I am just working on it now, plan to check there from time to time to see what is new and what is changing. Items on Page 3 will change much more frequently than on the other pages. Anyway, thanks so much for stopping in! Truly appreciate it!
