CARD
To feature this beautiful flower I used a stamp spotlight technique (which I hadn’t used for a while, so it was time).
I was using my mini MISTI for stamping which helped a huge deal with creating this effect.
I was stamping the same design on a Solar White and Navy cardstock panels. With a slight difference. I was stamping in color and layers onto the white cardstock and was white embossing onto the Navy one.
The main point of this technique is to create two absolutely the same designs with some key difference.
After I finished stamping the floral pattern I die cut a circle out of the white panel and popped it up onto the Navy one, aligning the stamped design with the white embossed one.
Then I wrapped a navy twine around the panel and foam mounted it onto a white card base.
Lastly I added the sentiment strip.
