Field Flowers

[smallcity]

Hi
When using Field Flowers which flower do you stamp first.? Also which ink color do you use first? Last question do you stamp the stem before or after you stamp the flower? I have been playing around and can't get it to look right. Hope someone can help.

I use the more solid flower stamp first in the lighter color ink and then the "outline" flower stamp over the top with the darker ink. Or you can stamp off once or twice for the first layer and then stamp the outline one without stamping off.

And I always stamp the stem first and then line up the flowers. I use the clear stamps so it lines up pretty easily. Maybe a stamp-a-ma-jig would help??

Here is a card I did a while back with the stamping off technique...
