I die cut on a scrap piece of paper and then attached that paper to the paper I actually wanted to stamp on to form a mask. I sponged a background using Angel Pink, Cantaloupe and Bamboo Leaves ink. Then I stamped the flower image. After all of the stamping and sponging was finished, I removed the mask and stamped my sentiment. I trimmed the focal piece and "roughed up" the edges a bit with my scissors to create a distinction between the focal piece and card base since they were both the same color. I mounted the focal piece onto the card base with foam tape. I also die cut a tiny butterfly out of vellum using the
Butterflies Die set and added some Stardust Stickles for some sparkle!
