I chose a 5 x 7" format and cut a card base from Early Espresso and mattes from Cajun Craze, Bermuda Bay, and Thick Very Vanilla. I also cut smaller mattes after first die cutting the Thick Very Vanilla matte with the #4 stitched square from the Stitched Shapes Framelits.
On the die cut Vanilla piece I also stamped the sunflower from the Painted Harvest stamp set using Bermuda Bay, Cajun Craze and for the centre, Soft Suede. The three small mattes were then stacked and adhered using liquid adhesive. A length of the Copper Trim was tied in a bow around the stack.
Using the smaller layered stack as a guide, I then stamped four more flowers, peeking out from where the stack would be adhered on the large Very Vanilla matte. I then stamped the detailed leaves with Cajun Craze, stamping them second and third ties as I moved away from the stamped sunflowers. Additional leaves were stamped on Very Vanilla and punched using the coordinating punch.
The three large mattes were then stacked and adhered together and two pieces of Burlap Ribbon and a length of the Bermuda Bay 3/8" Stitched Ribbon were wrapped around the stack. The stack of mattes was then adhered to the card front using Dimensionals. The smaller stack of mattes was adhered on the top right of the card front, over the stamped sunflowers.
The sentiment was stamped with Cajun Craze on Bermuda Bay and then punched with the Pretty Label Punch. A second label was punched from Cajun Craze and trimmed to use as a matte for the sentiment. The sentiment was adhered to the card front using Dimensionals.
To complete the card front, the punched leaves were adhered both under the sentiment and the smaller stack of mattes. Three of the White Perfect Accents were colored with a Sharpie and adhered to the ribbon.
On another Thick Very Vanilla matte, a sunflower was stamped and then the edges were inked with both Bermuda Bay and Cajun Craze.
