Sunflower Wedding and Birthday

So one of the guys I work with is getting married tomorrow. So I made a card for all of us at work to sign. He said they really didn’t have wedding colors but was decorating in sunflowers and country feel. So this is what I came up with!! Found the sunflower stickers at Hobby Lobby and they were on sale that week!!

CHALLENGES:
1) September Card Sketch Challenge @ Scrapbook.com – sketch #5. Original is from Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #157.
2) September Inspirational Card Challenge@ Scrapbook.com – Bonus category – Something old. Use something old from your stash that you have not used in a long time (you can’t remember the last time you used it). Well the metal charms I have had forever and I don’t use them very often.

SUPPLIES:
Cardstock: Bazzill (Beeswax, Pinecone, Rain Forest)
Sunflower Sticker: The Paper Studio La Petites (sunflowers)
Accents/Tools: burlap string, Studio G metal charms, Sizzix Love Set embossing folder, Marvy Uchida circle punch, Fiskars corner rounder, 1/8 scor-tape

So I made the wedding card and decided it would work for birthday to so I made a birthday one! One of the guys I work with his girlfriend loves sunflowers and her birthday is in October so I decided this design could also be for birthday! I didn’t have any birthday charms so I just left that element off.
