Impression Obsession is hosting their new challenge called "Fall Florals", here.
I LOVE entering their challenges, not only due to the $25 prize they give away every 2 weeks (although I'd have to win every time for 4 years to buy everything I want from IO!) but because it makes me use stamps and dies I purchased that I haven't had a chance to use.
This stamp is called Spring Barn. (link at the end) but I didn't remember the name when I saw it. You see, sunflowers are a fall flower here in the South. I don't think I've EVER seen them in the spring!!! It was only after I was getting ready to write this post that I tracked the stamp down to link it and saw the name. Needless to say, my OCD became a manic mess.
OCD: "Look!!! It says Spring Barn! Spring is the antithesis of Fall! You can't possibly enter this!!!"

Excellent card! Love the way you POPPED those flowers! And I like that you got past "spring" to allow it in a fall card. I challenge myself all the time to make something that's specific for one thing work for something else. It's fun. TFS!

Love all the fussy cut sunflowers and the way you have layered them all up. IO images are just great for doing this. Beautiful images for those of us who love colouring too.
