Sunflower Hello

 Sunflowers really do make me happy -- so does coffee! I'm simple like that!  There's a farmer's market that comes near my office once a week and making this card reminded me that I should stop by and pick up a big bunch of these happy florals for our kitchen island!   Seeing a pretty floral arrangement in my house is like bringing a bit of sunshine inside!


 For my card, I layered a soft leaf pattern paper to the base.  The sweet coffee cup dies from Lil Inker Designs were used to cut the pretty fall pattern paper.  These wonderful sunflower images are from Papertrey Ink and the centers/leaves are from different MFT Die-namic sets.  The 'hello' is from Papertrey Ink's Bloomin' Cute die collection.

Thanks to these challenges for the inspiration:
