MIX IT UP CHALLENGE #2 -STAMPING

Please feel free to take our blog logo and display on your own blog.
This is challenge #2 -   
ANYTHING GOES with optional twist STAMPING
(nothing digital, this MUST be stamped by hand)
 This is my inspiration project for you.
I started with a white base card with the fold at the top to make a tent card.
I stamped the images onto a piece of white card slightly smaller than the front of the card.
The stamp was part of a free gift on a magazine I bought.
I stamped the stems of the flowers first then the jar.
The bouquet and bow I stamped separately, coloured with Copics, fussy cut it out
and put it just above the top of the jar using 3D glue gel.
I layered this to the front of the card.
I stamped a sentiment and die cut it with a small tag. Tied twine in a bow
and placed it in the top right corner using 3D glue gel.
Hope this will give you lots of inspiration.
Take a moment or two to meet my other teamies....
