Gruffie with sunflowers

Nice to make a card to suit the day....beautiful sunny day here ...I was enjoying some gardening , then my neighbor decided to play some loud thrash metal....my shears where pictured severing his head and I'm not usually a violent woman  ....so I've made a card, crafting always relaxes me.

I've used my new cd rom again "the gruffies & happy hoppers" cd rom from Joanna Sheen , I love that big bear , great for men's cards. The sunflower paper is graphic 45 French Country and so is the matching ribbon slider. I made a sunflower embellishment by die cutting with a scalloped nestie circle . The sentiment is by craft work cards and the bit of bling is sticky gem flourishes bought for half price at Hobby Craft.

The cutie pie challenge : bring on the bling but make it cute

have a lovely weekend. janex
