Plum Purdy Fall

I tore up my whole craft room to find this stamp.  Turns out it was where it was suppose to be.  That's probably why I couldn't find it.

I have this paper pad from K&Company that has the most fabulous flowers.  This huge sunflower is from that pack and I just cut it out.  The Plum Purdy stamp was colored with Copics and mounted on a Wilton doily. It looks black in the photo, but card stock behind the sunflower is actually a deep chocolate which I used Martha Stewart punch on the corners.  I did add a little Stickles to the twig. The sunflower stretches out over the 5-1/2" card.  I hope I have an envelope.
