The entire Painted Harvest Product Suite is my absolute favorite new Holiday Catalog product! All of the Painted Harvest Suite products are so gorgeous, I couldn't simply pick one!
This card also plays with layering and matting border sizes - 1/8" borders and 1/16" borders. I love how the Early Espresso matte frames and enhances the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper. It really stands out!
I used the Designer Series Paper to create my color palette and then echoed the colors throughout the card for a cohesive look.
On the inside I stamped the sunflower image and added a narrow border of gold washi tape from the Year of Cheer Specialty Washi Tape set. The gold washi tape almost looks like the inside matte has been embossed for an elegant detail.
The sunflower is made from stamping Crushed Curry ink for the largest set of petals, Peekaboo Peach ink for the second set of petals, and Early Espresso ink for the center. The great thing about this sunflower stamp is that no matter which direction you turn each set of petals, it still looks amazing!
I hope you give this sweet and simple card a try! Here are the measurements.

Thank you so much for baring with me during my blogging absent. It has been a tumultuous few months with unexpected medical problems and procedures as well as a death in the family. I appreciate everyone's support!
Thank you for stopping by!
