Sunflowers!

Happy Labor Day!
I made another entry for the My Favorite Things Guest Designer Contest.
This month's theme is Rip & Roll.
I used the Pure Innocence stamp, Sunflower Girl.


The sunflowers were made with the notched tag die-namic and I used a 1/4" punch for the centers.
I just hand cut the stems from scrap paper. I ripped small pieces of scrap DP for the leaves.
The grass was made with the fresh cut grass die-namic and I rolled down the blades a little bit. I also added some crimped cardboard that I ripped for a little dirt and texture. 
I used the mini ticket die-namic for the sentiment and rolled up the two ends and put a brad in the center to attach it. I was going to take a picture of that close up but, my camera batteries died. *ugh*


I paper pieced her dress and colored her with copics. The clouds were cut from white fleece using the cloud trio die-namic. And I ripped some DP for a more interesting sky. I stitched around all the layers.
