Sunflower: One last reminder for Flowers & Fans!

One last inspiration piece for our Victorian Flowers & Fans challenge, this one created by Michele Storms, featuring a sunflower perfect for August.  I've been seeing big bright sunflowers standing proudly in a neighbor's back yard, and I am resolved to plant some along my fence next year! It's pretty much impossible not to smile when I look at sunflowers. :-)  According to my Victorian Language of Flowers guide, sunflowers stand for happiness and opportunity.
