MARCH 2011 Technique Stamp Group

We did this beautiful Cali Lily card during Stamp Group in March.  I used the Blossom Petal Punch. Punch one big petal & two long leaves from Whisper White card stock. Punch two long leaves out of Wild Wasabi & two stems by hand. The stamens are cut by hand out of Daffodil card stock & sponged with Daffodil ink. The flower leaves are sponged lightly with Sahara Sand & also in the middle behind the stamen. The bottom of the flower is sponged with Wild Wasabi just a little bit. Stamp the greeting from the Easter Blossoms Stamp Set, punch out with the Large Oval Punch. Punch the Daffodil card stock with the Decorative Label punch and the Espresso card stock with the Modern Label punch. Put it together and pop it up if you like.

I apologize for the poor picture. This one used the new Embossing Texture folder, Framed Tulips. I love it! I also used the Big Shot to do the scalloped heart. I embossed it and punched it out. I did marker to the stamp set Punch Potpourri (Level 1 Hostess set) for the heart on top of the scalloped heart. The leaves are from the Bird Punch. The rest is pretty self explanatory.

Hope you like these cards!
