I made this card last week using SCS sketch challenge 226.
I have to admit that I really dislike cutting out things. So, this is the first flower I've ever made like this. I think it turned out very well, and it was a very easy flower to cut. The only trouble I ran into was figuring out which lines to cut to make each layer.
I stamped the flower several times on Pink Pirouette and then cut out several different layers of the flower. I inked the edges of each layer to give more depth. Then, I just glued them all together.
I don't have a Mother's Day stamp, so I decided to just print it on the computer. I measured the size of the oval and then made an oval that size with a text box inside it to make sure it was the correct size. The sentiment layer is popped up with dimensionals, as is the whole flower.
I also inked the edges of the other panels and over the top of the embossed images.
