I would suggest using regular SU! white instead of glossy as it would be easier to shade in the blocks with watercolor crayons or markers. Maybe a swirl or wash of color. Or simply punch out a window and print that central stamp from Natural Beauty on the inside of the card... I also did a similar card using a black background and filled in between the word blocks with black reinker juice. Very dark card, but the words "float", on a two dimensional card.

It would be a very fast card to CASE. It's just a coloring book - black and white, and color it in. Only three stamps, each used one, using black ink. I experimented, and the easiest way to "mask" was to just ink the background stamp using the stamp pad with gentle little strokes - avoiding the block where the other stamps go. No actual masking. (I had done a mask of all those little blocks with the idea of sponging, and put it aside - just easier to color in the blocks.) All that work to come up with something very simple.
