Add some sunny hues and big blooms to your next card. Peep these gorgeous sunflowers and get some autumn inspiration.
Today’s card is from our designer, April, who said, “I wanted to grab some autumnal colors for this card to welcome one of my favorite seasons of the year.” She did just that with this sunny yellow paired with the muted tans and browns that are bringing all the sunflower field vibes. We love the little details April used, using the French script in the background and adding some paint splatters to give this card the extra pizzaz worthy of the fall season. Follow along as April gives us some fall sunflower card inspiration.
