Today's F4A was to stack a shape. My imagination didn't take me any further than using the Sizzix Daisies die.
A2 black base. Matting is orange texture paper and green Bazzill. Main black layer is stamped with Impression Obsession Dots in Versamark amd embossed with Iridescent Ice.
Flower, leaves and flourish were all cut from a scrap of glossy card and sponged. Flower is also stamped with a script stamp in Versafine Sepia, and the leaves and flourish with a music stamp in Versafine Olympia Green.
Sentiment from Flourishes stamped on the smallest scalloped oval, sponged and then I added 3 layers of UTEE. Everything is layered up with foam, and I added a gem to the centre of the flower. I was hoping to try blue for a pop of contrast but the blue I had didn't look right.
Distress inks used for sponging - Peeled Paint, Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade and Worn Lipstick.

Your imagination took you where you were supposed to go, this is beautiful - absolutely striking and dramatic! I love the stamping across the leaves and petals.
