This card was made using the tutorial on Andrea Hayes' blog. http://stampembellishcreate.ning.com...sg_mes_network
What an amazing technique this is. I had lots of fun playing with different colors of reinkers.
Check out the video for the how-to
I stamped the flowers from Serene Silhouettes then added a black border, daffodil ribbon and the word window punch for the saying.
I'm so glad this will go to a tea party attender. I hope it will brighten their day. My image depicts a hot, sunny day. That's what we've been having here in Ohio.

Ladies, I found that if I lift the block side to side instead of from the bottom to the top the colors stayed true. When I lifted like she does on the video, that the darker color from the bottom ran into the the others and turned murky in color. So I lifted the left side and rolled it off to the right. Does that make sense?

Wowza - that is drop-dead gorgeous!! I'm not sure I'd like quite that blazing heat (anything much above 75 is HOT here, LOL), but I just LOVE it on your card. I'll have to check that video out.
