Flowered Thank You

I needed a thank you card and decided to make one with flowers to enter into the Gina K. Designs March Monthly Mix Challenge - Flower Power. 

I started with a piece of white cardstock and stamped the flowers. After I stamped the purple one, I used a piece of masking paper to cover the flower and stamped the yellow flower on the left. Then I masked that one as well and stamped the pink, masked again and stamped the yellow one on the right. These are two step stamps, so the outline is in a darker ink than the main flower. I then stamped the leaves, again masking off the flowers so the leaves look like they are behind the flowers.

After stamping the sentiment, I heat embossed it in clear. I matted the panel with Wild Lilac card stock and attached it to a white card base.

I thought the flowers made it look a little more like Spring, as we had two snowfalls in three days this week. I am certainly looking forward to warmer temperatures and real flowers in the garden!
