I placed the embossed panel on the Soft Sea Foam card front and lightly drew a pencil line along the top. The floral image was then stamped twice along the pencil line which was then erased.

The whole panel was then mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.

I chose a sentiment from the Greenery Lane stamp set and masked off the words and stamped them one at a time on the die cut circle in Basic Gray ink. The spray of flowers was added with the same ink.

Calypso Coral card -5¼” by ¼”

I stamped the large leafy spray from the Greenery Lane stamp set onto the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card in 1st and 2nd generation Pool Party ink.
