I'm so ready for Autumn it's not even funny around here. After so many HOT days in Texas this summer, I'm ready to see cooler temps - and quick!
I have a whole slew of family and friends that are having birthdays in the next couple of months. So when I saw the pretty little flowers from Hambo I knew I'd have to make a birthday card. I used Very Vanilla, Chocolate Chip, and Old Olive card stock from SU. I used two of the three flowers images, colored them with Copics, cut them out, and popped them up on dimensionals. I used the Square Lattice embossing folder from SU on the green. That's a piece of chocolate brown ribbon at the bottom with hemp twine run across it and then tied in a bow. (Why does brown ribbon always photograph in black for me!) A little sponging was done, the sentiment stamped, and card completed.
Thanks for stopping by........

beautiful ... love the colors and I'm seriously going to have to break down and buy that SU folder
Very, very pretty Lynn! You've colored it beautifully and gave it a perfect touch with twine.
ooohhhh pretty!!!!! Girl your coloring is spot on with the colors,shading and highlighting. This is a great card letting those sweet little flowers shine on through. This week is cooler, but next week the temps are back up to upper 90's :(
I am with you and so very ready for Fall! It's not quite as hot in TN as I hear TX has been , but I am ready nonetheless! Great card, I love your sunflowers and of course the fall color palette!
LOVE it very, very, very much. That embossing folder is one of the BEST ones. The stamped flowers look so happy and cheerful. Not to miss that it is a super colour combo as well.

My brown always shows up as black for me too!

This is such a simple, yet pretty card! I love how you colored those flowers and the ribbon looks good whether it's brown or black :)
Love this CAS design, Lynn. The flowers are superb - great coloring. I have that same problem with brown often photographing as black. I've never been able to correct it, either. :-(
So pretty! Love the fussy cutting for the flowers! This embossing folder is one of my favorites! I never know how my pictures are going to turn out either...
Very pretty card. Super coloring on the flowers & I like the ribbon with the twine. Thanks for playing in the Hoedown this week.
Beautiful birthday card! Love the Autumn colors. Great idea to cut out the flowers and pop them up!
Beautiful! I like "texture" in the center of the flowers.
I'm afraid we won't get much relief till winter, Lynn, but we can always hope!!! Your little daisy card is adorable....such sweet little flowers and I love the fall colors!!!
What a beautiful card, perfect for fall!
