Here’s a technique which is easy to do but looks effective. It’s called the Masking Technique.
This technique allows you to stamp a variety of images which look like they overlap and not stamping over each other. On this card I stamped the smaller flower with Melon Mambo ink (#147051) onto the Basic White card (#1591228). I then stamped this flower onto a Post-it-note and cut the image very close to the lines. I then placed this over the stamped image on the card. I stamped the larger flower using Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099) as shown below.
When the post-it-note is removed you get the image of the 2 flowers, one in front of the other.
I also stamped 2 of the larger flowers on the post-it-notes and continued stamping on the card with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) and Real Red ink (#147084), covering each stamped image to prevent stamping over the flowers on the card. These flowers are from the Forever & Always stamp set (#154343). The leaves are from the Forever Fern stamp set (#152559) and stamped with Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104), also using the masking technique.
I added some colour to the flowers with Purple Posy Stampin’ Blends (#154896), Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends (#154893), Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends (#154958) and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends (#154905). Then I used the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897) to add glitter to the flowers.
The stitching on the card front was achieved with the Stitched With Whimsey Dies (#155314). The sentiment from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set (#154368) was stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink, then cut with a Stitched Rectangles Die (#151820). The edges of the card front and sentiment were also daubered with Gorgeous Grape ink. Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attached the sentiment to the card.
The trio of embellishments are from the Pastel Pearls (#154571).
