Hearts and Flower Stack-up.

I love this week between Christmas and New Years. It doesn't matter if I'm at work or at home, everyday is more relaxed than normal.
A couple of weeks ago Samantha (my sister, co-worker and DRS web designser) showed me a logo in an email she received. She asked me if we had any stamps that could do something similiar, here's what I came up with ...
Pictured below are the three DRS stamps I used to create the layered portion of my card.
Using black pigment ink and clear embossing powder, I stamped M660 twice, once on red paper and once on a shimmery green. Then I stamped just the large flower of K662 twice, both on pink paper, then stamped just the flower of stamp K582 once on red paper. Then I sat back and cut out all of my stampings and layered them all together, twisting and turning to get them just right. I added a white paper heart punch out to the front center and a large mirror card circle to the back.
Next I worked on the background - using H813 and versamark ink I stamped the flower background on a medium pink paper and colored the center of each flower with a glitter pen, layered it with white paper and then onto my pink card. After attaching my layered circle, it was still lacking something, but a little bling added just the right touch!
Thanks for stopping by and sharing a part of your holiday week with us. Happy New Year!
