Sunflower Punch Art Birthday Card

I'm on a roll with challenges!! Are you playing along with me? Here's my first card for the Sept 15 Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge. The theme this week is Sunflower Surprise! I actually made TWO cards. I started this one first, but wasn't sure how to finish it, so I abandoned it and made another card. Then I came back and finished it. I love the bright graphic colors of sunflowers and I think this card captures that perfectly!
Pin It!
To give the flowers dimensional, I cut the petals and layered the flowers on top of each other with Stampin' Dimensionals. I also used the Core'dination cardstock for the leaves and sanded the top.

After taking photos of my cards, I decided I want to tweak the other one, so watch for it to post tomorrow!
