Hi everyone. Today I'm sharing a card inspired by a few challenges. This time I wanted to celebrate the upcoming Fall season with sunflowers.
I stamped these lovely sunflowers (Pop Sunflowers - Stampendous) in black ink and clear heat embossed before watercolouring with distress inks. I die-cut an oval from an older die set that I rarely use, and dry embossed the oval using a new-to-me embossing folder (Mason Wall - Altenew).
This layout and design is curtesy of Ceal, following the challenge at AAA Birthday to CASE one of Ceal's beautiful cards (see photo below). Thank so much for the inspiration Ceal!!

I love your happy sunflowers, Loll. Your CASE of Ceal's card with the colors of the Color Hues Challenge came together in such a wonderful way.

Beautifully CAS, Lolly, and a beautiful CASE of Ceal's card!
What a lovely card, Loll! I adore the flowers and coloring, but the e/f caught my attention too. I recently purchased it and now I must use.... also love that you used an oval instead of a simple circle!
Your bright orange sunflowers are gorgeous Loll, and a brilliant case of Ceal's beautiful card, and the embossed oval makes a wonderful background. x
Those bright orange sunflowers are just gorgeous against that very lovely embossed oval! It was, indeed, a wonderful way to celebrate fall! Thanks for sharing with us at Color Hues!
Beautiful elegant sunflower, I love your framing with the embossed background xx
Perfect autumn card! I love the rich rusty red colour of the sunflowers.
Love the textured panel behind those sunflowers Loll. Thanks for linking up at Color Hues too. :)
The colourful sunflowers against the white backgrounds look amazing Loll - the embossing on the oval is subtle, but so very effective
Blessings

What pretty sunflowers, Loll - love them atop the oval with Mason wall embossing!!
Oh, goodness, some of my favorite sunflowers and so pretty in this color! I've long admired the Mason Wall embossing and it makes such a great resting place for your flowers. Love this, and glad I was able to catch up on visiting today. Now I'm off and running again. Hugs!
