Here's a fun card I just made for a friend who is a self-proclaimed sunflower girl. 

Supplies:
Sunflower background stamp
More Mustard Classic Ink Stampin' Pad
Chocolate Chip Stampin' Write Marker
Whisper White, Garden Green, More Mustard and Chocolate Chip card stock
Scallop Oval and Large Oval punches
"Thanks" sentiment is from the Rue Des Fleurs set (Occasions Mini 2012)

To get the stipple effect on the sunflower center: 
First, ink the entire stamp with the More Mustard Ink Pad.  Make sure the stamp is well inked to get all the beautiful details on the petals.
Next, take the brush end of the Chocolate Chip marker and with the side of the brush, mix the Chocolate Chip ink with the More Mustard in the flower center. 
Stipple the edges of the center with the side of the brush, along where the petals join the center and the stamens fluff out along the edge. 
Give the whole stamp a few foggy breaths to keep the ink moist and stamp on the Whisper White card stock. 

Hope you enjoy!
