As soon as I saw the Quint-Essential Flower stamp on page 110 of the catalog, I knew I had to have it. The catalog shows how to layer the punched images but I knew I had to try it myself. And I love it! (Click on the highlighted item numbers behind the product descriptions to see the items in the online catalog.)
I stamped the Quint-Essential Flower (126790) once in Raspberry Ripple, once in Basic Black and once in Gumball Green. I punched a 3/4″ circle (119873) from the Raspberry Ripple image and then punched out the same image with the 2-3/8″ Scallop Circle punch (118874). Next, I punched a 1/2″ Circle (119869) and a 1-3/4″ Scallop Circle (119854) from the Basic Black. Finally I punched the Gumball Green with the 1″ Circle (119868).
I glued the smallest two circles together and then used a Dimensional (104430) to attach them to the Gumball Green circle that I glued to the Basic Black Scallop Circle. I then used Dimensionals again between the largest two layers.
The card itself is Raspberry Ripple card stock with a 1/2″ smaller piece of Basic Black card stock 5″ x 3-3/4″) and a 1/4″ smaller piece of Whisper White card stock (4-3/4″ x 3-1/2″) layered together. The Basic Black polka dot patterned paper is from the Neutrals Color Collection Paper Stacks (117157).
I adhered a length of Whisper White 1/4″ Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon (126877) around the patterned paper piece and added a bow with a glue dot. The greeting is from the new Lovely Little Labels stamp set (wood 126260, clear 126262) and punched with one of three new punches in the Little Labels Punch Pack (126881). These matching little stamps and punches are so cute!
