Four on Friday- Like a Sunflower


It's time for another Four on Friday with my friend, Alicia!! This has to be one of my most favorite collabs!! Every few weeks we each post four projects with the same product, technique, type of card, etc. but we don't tell each other what we're doing so it's a surprise for us too!

I decided for my four creations this week would all feature the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamp set, Like a Sunflower! I recently purchased this set so I was excited to use it!


I stamped on some SU Crumb Cake cardstock for my first card and colored the sunflower with Prismacolor pencils. I really love the look of this but rarely do it! If you want to see some AMAZING pencil coloring on kraft cardstock, check out Kerri's blog HERE!! 


I thought it would be fun for the second card to be a mini slimline card. I used my Kat Scrappiness Mini Slimline Zig Zag dies for this one.


I love the sentiment "Keep your face to the sunshine" so I made sure it fit on the next card and I used some brighter colors.

On my last card I decided to have some fun and use some non-traditional colors for my sunflower. Always fun to switch it up!! I decided to add some clouds too since making clouds is one of my favorite things to do!


Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to check out Alicia's video too!! Have a great day!

Loving all of these!! Have been a sunflower fan for a while. Really like the ones with the sunflower hanging off the edges and how you used alternative colors for the last one. I’m gonna have to get out my Kraft and colored pencils again. Thanks for teaming up with me, friend!!

One of my favorite flowers is the Sunflower. Your cards showcased them in perfect light. I love changing things up to and playing with colors. Great cards!

Love the way your cards turned out. I love sunflowers too.

You are extraordinary with your coloring, using any medium. I love kraft cardstock so was particularly drawn to that one. I also like the sunflowers going off the edge, as well as the artsy interpretation of different colors. I'm patiently waiting for the sunflowers to start blooming for real.

Wow - I have been eyeing this stamp set for a while. Sunflowers are my favorite. I love all your cards and I also love the coloring on kraft.

Hi Daneen, I love these cards. While they are all beautiful, my favourites are the Smile and Keep Your face to the sunshine cards. Love and hugs. God bless.
