Shabby Baby Roses

This card turned out just how I saw it in my head, that rarely happens! LOL -It's all stamped layers on Shimmery White cardstock. I stamped the frame in the middle first with Crumb Cake ink and then the 'Friend' from You're a Gem set with Espresso ink, then the little rose with Rose Red & Pear Pizzazz inks. The second layer was again Rose Red & Pear Pizzazz inks. The last layer was Rose Red, Pear Pizzazz, Crumb Cake and Baja Breeze inks. All edges were sponged with Crumb Cake and to finish off the card I used Crumb Cake Seam Binding and Basic Pearls. This set called Baby Blossoms is in the new Occasions Mini Catalog and I decided to buy it in Clear, rather then wood mount. Im glad I did because these little flowers are so easy to line up when you can see right where to place them! It is a two-step stamp set and I LOVE it, each piece I ended up using and that rarely happens too!
TWO-STEP Stamping: For all the little flowers I inked up the first stamp and then stamped off on scratch paper before stamping on my cardstock then I stamped the second stamp over the top of the first one without stamping off first. This gives the flower a shaded look with light and dark layers!
