Celebrate Sunflowers





Celebrate Sunflowers with Hive 3D Embossing folder

Today I demonstrated a card using the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and Sunflowers Dies.  I got the idea to do this demonstration because the August Paper Pumpkin kit, Sweetest Sunflowers, has been extremely popular.  Crafters that had not subscribed to this months kit have been scrambling trying to find one.  So I thought I would show the alternative of making one from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and coordinating dies.  

To see the 2 cards I made from the Paper Pumpkin kit, watch the YouTube video.
