hi there,
Here is a card I made using the new background stamp from Penny Black. I wanted to show how to use this stamp for more then just a background. First, I stamped the main panel with Pear Tart Memento ink. After cleaning my stamp, I applied Versamark and white embossing powder and heated with my heat tool. I punched a circle out from the white embossed piece, then using the green ink again and a water pen, I coloured the leaves in to give a reverse of the flowers on the background. The fresh feel of the green really makes me want for Spring!
Hope you like it and thanks so much for looking.

Karen, your card is beautiful(what else).....and your technique is terrific for those stamps that lay down the bg. TFS I love your young spring green too. (It's snowing here)
