I have this sunny Birthday Card to share with you today. This card features a lovely sunflower from the Painted Harvest stamp set to brighten up any day. The card is simple and easy to make and really brings up back to the basics of cardmaking, ink, paper and stamps.
I love sunflowers. They are stunning flowers. I was watching the Tour de France earlier this year and remember seeing the amazing fields of sunflowers in parts of France. They are truly a spectacle to behold.
I normally don’t enjoy fussy cutting as I don’t have the patience for it but I seem to be making quite a few cards that require fussy cutting recently. Not sure why though. The sunflower on this card is fussy cut and it is not as hard as I thought it would be. The image is very forgiving as it has such a sketchy design.

As mentioned previously this is a really simple card to make that goes back to the basics of card, ink and paper. I think sometimes we make such elaborate cards that we forget how effective just simple stamping can be.
