Sunflower Card

For this card I used the "Shatter Background Die" I picked up at the Scrapbook Expo show in Fredericksburg, VA from the TallMouse booth for $10.00:

The card stock I used for this card is from the "Summer Sunshine" pack of 6x6 card stock that I bought at the "craftystampco" booth:

This card stock is double sided so lots of options for prints on a card front. Here is my card and as you can see I made my card front upside down from the way their die is as I wanted my larger print of sunflowers to be the focal print on the card front:

I went through my stash of coloured card stock bases that are already cut and scored at the top and I found this green card stock base that would go with my sunflower prints. First I cut out a piece of white card stock using the base piece in the TallMouse die set for my card front. I cut out all four of my printed card stocks using the layering pieces in the die set. Used liquid glue to put all the prints onto the white card stock base. Used liquid glue to put the card front on the green card stock base. Set this aside. 

Looked through my hot foil sentiments and pulled out the Pinkfresh "Celebrating You" hot foil plate with matching die. Hot foiled this plate using matte gold foil on a white card stock. Die cut that out using the matching die. I die cut out a second layer of white card stock and put this blank white card stock piece behind my sentiment to make it more sturdy on the card front. I put the "thinking of you" sentiment on the card front using pop dots. Added three clear gold gems to the card front.

Easy card to put together and using a pack of 6x6 themed card stock made putting prints together for the card front simple. I had never heard of "craftystampco.com" before but happy I shopped her booth at the show as this printed card stock is very nice. Will be ordering from her online I am sure.....
