Sunflower Season Pocket Card

Good morning to all! I know it's a bit early for the sunflowers to bloom, at least in our neck of the woods, but oh, how we await them. They are so lovely, grand and absolutely cheerful! Esther used our Sunflower Season set for her lovely pocket card today, along with numerous sentiments. Another one of those cards that is just so much fun to make, and even more fun for the recipient to open!

And to sweeten the pie, our Sunflower set, along with our Coneflower set, are both featured this week as our Product of the Week at 20% OFF thru Saturday only. So check that all out at the end of this post.


This is the lovely card front.

Sunflower Season (floral, die cut sentiment)

Wood Texture (wood designer paper)

Crochet Lace - 50% OFF!

The floral, stripe and check designer papers are digital that Esther printed.


This is the card opened, exposing the fun slanted pocket.

Thank You for Caring Coneflower (sentiment on pocket)

Twine - 50% OFF!



And here the tuck-ins have been removed from the pocket.

Sunflower Season (all stamped sunflowers)

Pray Without Ceasing (sentiment on circle tag)

Thank you so much, Esther, for this wonderful, cheerful and heart-felt card filled with scripture and goodness inside and out.

The 2 floral sets we offer this week are some of our very best sellers, and with reason.

A Tribute to Fathers

 This Sunday is Father's Day - a day we take pause and give thanks for the goodness, guidance, kindness and graciousness of our Dads and all the other father figures in our lives, and there are many. This lovely and simple card today from Deb Saaranen sums it up perfectly with a verse from scripture.

The righteous man walks in his integrity,

his children are blessed after him.

Proverbs 20:7

And there are just 2 days left to our current Product of the Week sale featuring tulips and roses, so check that out at the end of this post as well.
