Good Sunday Morning all! As you can probably tell, I have been having a rummage through some of my old folders. This card is from late last year, but these sunflowers are just so pretty, I thought I would share it with you. I selected our
chestnut brown card which I think is the prettiest shade of brown, for my background just to be a bit different. Using a
clear Perfect Medium pad, I stamped the
Lavish Corners background by Justrite and heat embossed it with a
clear embossing powder for a tonal look. I cut the
Resplendent Rectangles twice in
coconut white card and added them behind my background, just peeking out around the edge. There was a bit of an overlap to them, but it fit rather nicely. I stamped the
Justrite Sunflowers Vintage Labels Five set and cut it out with the matching die. I coloured it with
Distress markers and added a little white gel pen to the centre as an accent. Using the
Decorative Labels Eight die, I cut two of them and nipped them in half to fit them so they were framing my focal element. I added foam to the back and placed it in the centre of my card. I decided to keep it simple, no extra flowers or ribbons as I just liked the tonal background showing. The card was then finished with a bit of matting and layering with taupe and white card with my usual pierced layer to frame the centrepiece. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 3/4" in size.

Good Sunday Morning Sue
It is a beautiful autumn morning here in Kent and the sun is breaking through the early morning mist. The sunflowers in my neighbours garden are way up above the fence and there bright yellow faces raised to the sun.
Sunflowers are a particular favourite of mine so your card is very appropriate for today. I love the chestnut card as well it is a beautiful, rich, autumn shade and goes well with the yellows and oranges of the sunflowers.
Congratulations to all the winners.

That should have read their yellow faces ( I do know the difference but am typing in a hurry! :) My excuse honest! LOL

Good morning Sue
Whoo Hoo! I'm one of the lucky winners thank you so much and congratulations to all the other winners.
Anything with Sunflowers on is a winner with me they are my favourite flowers I have them everywhere. I love the background on today's card it's so pretty. Whenever I use a sunflower on a card it's usually on white but I love it on brown.
Hugs x
Heather T
Beautiful card,do love that chestnut brown.Congratulations to all the winners.
Morning Sue,
Love the design of the card, but not too sure about the background colour, it probably looks better in real life.
Congratulations to the winners.

Hi Sue
Another lovely card. Its good to use some of the older dies that get left at the back when you receive new ones.
Congrats to all the winners.
Good morning Sue What a lovely card it's nice to see some of the older dies sneaking back in. But I'm not sure about the background. The sunflower is wonderful. And congratulations to all today's winners. Take care xxx

Hi Sue
I just adore sunflowers they make a dull day happy and we are going to have a go at growing them next year with the grandchildren.
Had a busy day yesterday baking with hubby we made some shortbread, flapjack and cinnamon buns lkets see how long they last.
Pam had a quick look at Robbie's page what a handsome lad and keep up the good work.
Congratulations to the winners and looking foward to the weekender on C&C next week as it is Sue Wilson dies.
Gentle hugs for baby Leo and love and big hugs to all the Wilsonettes
Happy crafting

morning Sue
Before I do anything else I need a little help please. I seem to have missed the Candy Blog draw and therefore the Winner. Can anyone please tell me who won.
Now for today's gift and what a gift. I know a young lady who would go 'ape' if she received this card. Sunflowers are her absolute favourites. She doesn't have any other flowers. So for me today's gift is just the perfect gift for her. I love the colour scheme of brown/yellow. Those colours are just made for each other and I think you were right Sue in not adding ribbon etc.
This has definitely gone into my 'must do and save' file.
Wheely Bad - hope you had a good night and feel a little brighter this morning.
Lynnw - hope everything went well at the fete and perhaps can I say that your little darlings misbehaved a little for 'Dad' but I bet they didn't.
Norah - where were you yesterday? Hope all is OK and that your expedition of 'up the lane' hasn't floored you.
Sandraa - missed you too. Hope you're OK.
Absolutely shattered yesterday afternoon after trekking around Meadowhall all morning. At least Bday pressies bought so don't have to worry about that and a little bit of something for my other two Greats as I cannot just give to one without the other.
Looking forward to today as we're visiting my eldest daughter Christina in Hognaston. Hope 'Raged' squirrel is behaving himself and that we're not savaged by him when we arrive!!
Hoping that all in need are feeling a little better this morning and looking forward to a beautiful Sunday. Take care and see you tomorrow.

Good morning Sue and everyone. Beautiful card, very seasonal and sunflowers always cheer me up and make me smile. Congratulations to all the winners.
Thanks for the info about Sue's poinsettia dies June, it's made my mind up (I'll have to get them - well it's only money and as my Gran used to say "you can't take it with you"). Ant & Dec were brilliant, shame the same couldn't be said for the Metro Arena organisers - Maureen K, your daughter will tell you the saga!!! Wishing everyone a peaceful day. Sue xxx
Hi Sue ... Love the card ... Happy crafting and have a nice Sunday ... x

Hugs to all in need of one today, hope Steph and Norah are in toppish form today.
Morning Sue. A really lovely card. There is just something about sunflowers. I like the tone on tone. I must remember to try using my rectangles to frame a piece. Thanks for sharing Sue. Have a lovely Sunday. Hugs Heather.x

Lovely card, I love sunflowers , they make you feel happy just to look at them, unfortunately mine haven't opened up yet, that's if they are still there as we had a sheep in the garden last night and I had to go out at 2am to chase it away so don't know yet how much it munched!

Good Morning Sue & Lovely Friends,
Lovely Autumnal offering today, Sunflowers always make me think of France, they grow hundreds of fields of them over there in the Summer,they look so pretty.

Hi Sue, Beautiful card love Jean Z xx
Afternoon Sue, love today's card,it reminds me of a ploughed field that are now all around us with a touch of brightness from the sunflower. Love the way you have adapted the frames too as always.
Looking forward to Saturday with your weekender, I must get the horses done extra early so I can run in and see what you have and order before it all sells out by the time I have finished teaching at 2!
Well I'm off for a short stroll on my horse now. It's so nice being back in the saddle after 4 1/2 years since my accident, even if all I can now manage is a small trot and walk, whilst being trussed up like a turkey in my body protector!
Happy Sunday one and all congratulations to all this weeks winners, love to my special friends on here you are so kind to me with your good wishes. Xx
Lovely card today Sue.
Congrats to all the comments winners.
Craftihappiness to everyone, love from Pearl.
Beautiful card Sue, I love sunflowers too. The brightness of the yellow really lifts the card and the chestnut card is gorgeous too. Congrats to all this week's winners.

Hi Sue
What a lovely card. The brown background works brilliantly with sunflowers. I have not got any brown card in my stash but I will certainly be getting some in future. Than your for your inspirational projects. Hugs from Chris X
Hi All, I can't believe its over 2 weeks since I blogged, but I have been really unwell, and unable to comment.
There is something about sunflowers that brighten my day, lovely card as always.
Glad to see some friends are feeling a little better and some that aren't. So happy for all those who feel better and hugs to all those that don't. My daughter had a wonderful time in Vancouver and brought back lots of crafting goodies for me. Love to all. Theresa xx
Hi Sue,
another really lovely card today.
Just the right sort of card for this time of year, as Sunflowers always seem to be a autumnal flower.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Nice card wished the background was lighter but love the concept. Thank you Sue
The brown card complements the gorgeous sunflower so well. A lovely card Sue. Congrats to all the winners. Pat x
We seem to be split on this one, Sue, personally love the brown embossed background and whilst I do like sunflowers, not keen on this particular stamp (though beautifully coloured in!)
Well done to all winners - nice one, Heather T.
'P' in Wales
Norah, you OK?? Missing your banter.
Lindsay - so pleased you're back in the saddle - careful now!
Hi Sue
Beautiful card to send to anyone with a birthday this month. Congrats to all the winners. Best wishes to all
Vanessa x
These are quite unusual colours on a card - very harvest-time I think. The dark background really shows up the centrepiece. I fear our 'Summer Days' are coming to an end, but with your inspiration cheering us up daily we'll survive!
Hi Sue
I agree with you this shade of brown is really nice.Loving the sunflower stamp,such a beautiful flower.
Congrats to all the winners. Hi Sue, another gorgeous card. There's just no end to your incredible talent. I am in awe.
Lots of love,
Ivy ling xx
Even if you posted this card last year it is still a beautiful card...
Well done Sue
Hi Sue
Lovely card and the background complements the Sunflower stamp
Congratulations to all the lucky winners, enjoy your prize
Norah and Lancashire Steph hope you are both feeling ok?
Best wishes to everyone, Pat
This is a very cool card. Great idea to overlap the die cuts. I am going to try that in the future. Well done as usual.

First, of course, congrats to the winners!
Love this card, it reminds me of the tooled leather we have in our western saddles here in Texas. We are horse people, we do ride English, too, but mostly our style is western, which means cowboys and rodeos. We love a little leather and lace!
Thanks for sharing.
Lovely card again Sue I like the tonal backgroundThat an old re die is used and the decorative labels cut twice look brilliant Congrats winners
Hi Sue, Sunflowers always make you smile and are so cheery. Thank you for cheering up my Sunday. Hugs Pauline A xxx
Lovely card Sue! The sunflowers are so cheerful and pretty.
JANET the blog candy hasn't been drawn yet, with the die giveaway Sue didn't have time to do it and delayed it for a couple of weeks. I think Sue is back in America just now.
Congratulations to all the comment winners.
Gorgeous card Sue love the sunflower tho the dark background is a bit too dark for me. I would probably do a lighter one. Well done all the winners.
Hugs to everyone.

Sunflowers my favourite - I find it very difficult not to buy sunflower or daisy stamps when I am at shows.
Congratulations to all this week's winners :). Sue, what a lovely sunny card, I'm lucky enough to still have some sunflowers blooming in my garden and I love to watch them follow the sun during the day. The brown background looks great, it's amazing what effects can be obtained by just using clear embossing powder. I still haven't managed to get hold of a piercing ruler but every day I look at your wonderful cards and tell myself that I really must get my act together and see if I can get one. It's another stunning card, Sue and as always, thanks for sharing with us. x
Hi Sue and everyone. Lovely Sunny card.I like the dark brown with the yellow/orange sunflower.
Little bit of sun always make me feel lighter and today we have had a gorgeous day with a small breeze so the washing will now be dry and clean for another day.
Hugs to my Wilsonette friends,your family and pets(small as large) Take care,
Hugs Maria x
I think I must be the only one who doesn't like sunflowers, sorry. I like the style and would use a different stamp and colour. Thank you for the ideas though Sue. Luv to all and Congrats to the winners. Luv jax
Hi Sue,
Sorry, but I definitely think I'm in the minority as this card really isn't for me. I'm not a lover of sunflowers and I also think the background is too dark. As they say, it wouldn't do for us all to like the same things. Sorry!
Lindsay, pleased you seem to be a bit better today but do be careful. Love and hugs to everyone and look forward to seeing you all here tomorrow. Love Alison xx
love the sunflower ,Laura O
lovely hues on this Sue. pretty card. i really like the effect obtained by the clear embossing, hugs xx

Hi Sue, just not 100% sure about this card, maybe it is the brown. I love the sunflower and your colouring, though.
Congratulations to all the winners, enjoy your prizes.

Hi Sue, a lovely card. The chestnut card goes lovely with the sunflowers.
Hello again Sue, and all my friends,
I know I don't know you all personally, but I feel that you are my friends. I've had a lovely day and will try to post early tomorrow so that I can tell CraftySuetoo that my daughter and girls were full of the chaos that was the Arena.
I forgot to say congrats to the winners this morning. xx
Hi Sue, An autumn feel to this card, not your usual colour combination. Lovely design. Anne x
Hellooooo Sue and the Wilsonettes! Love the cheerful sunflowers on this card. They just seem to pick you up as you look at them. Gorgeous card Sue and love the background stamp and die too. Brown card I think is under rated. I think it's a lovely colour, especially when mixed with yellow, orange, white, black, pink, just to name but a few colours. Reminds me bit of liquorice allsorts....apart from the orange! "Thank you Sue" for your inspiration xx Sending love and hugs to you and your family xx Ooooo and how great it was to see you again in the Simply Cards and Papercraft magazine. It was great reading the Paved Pearl effect and the cards that you made, Merry Christmas and Christmas Wishes are stunning! It was great to see a mention of Sam too on the blog spotlight, page 8! Wonderful! I really do love this magazine, not only for the tips but for the wonderful, quality free gifts they give. This month being Spellbinder Christmas Creations clear stamp set and an embossing folder! Can't wait to use them! Last years was the Spellbinders Heirloom baubles! Will have to get a move on, it won't be long! Lyndsey, wow! I can imagine how priceless it was for you getting back in the saddle after 4 1/2 years. So so pleased for you xx I used to love it, my last ride being a 2 hour trek 15 years ago.....good grief....I'll stop now! Lol! Sending love and hugs to you Lyndsey, Lynne, Lynda, Yorkielass, Pam, Tina and all our Wilsonette family who need a love and hug xx Congratulations to our lucky winners! Wonderful! Enjoy your prizes! take care everyone xx Love Karen xx
I like it when you use older items. We all buy stuff then it is overtaken and I at least, forget how I've seen the older items used.
Thanks for taking us back today.

Love this card. The fall colors are magnificent. Great job.
HI SUE
THINK THIS STAMP STANDS OUT SO WELL AGAINST THE BROWN. JUST RITE STAMPS ARE FAB. I HAVE YET ANOTHER LINE OF PEG BOARD ON MY WALL TO COLLECT MORE STAMPS ( MY ADDICTION IS GROWING). RESPLENDENT RECTANGLES I HAVE USED SO MUCH IT IS NEVER OFF MY DESK. SUCH A HANDY SIZE. i WOULDNT HAVE THOUGHT TO USE THE YELLOW ON THE MAT AND LAYERS BUT PICKS UP THE SUNFLOWER BEAUTIFULLY. FAB JOB
