Sunflower Mashup

I was inspired by the thought of fall being just around the corner. I stamped the large sunflower stamp in crumbcake on very vanilla, then stamped the leaf from french foliage in basic gray; embossed with square lattice EF. Added the basic gray cardstock also embossed in square lattice, a strip of vanilla, and itty bitty shapes flowers with a few rhinestones. Ribbon is very vanilla seam binding with a decorative brad. Congratulations is from itty bitty banners and is cut with bitty banners framelits.
Thanks for looking :)
