Make the Most of It Monday

Happy Monday, everyone!  Sherri here-getting in a quick share before we start our Thanksgiving break tomorrow. :)
 
Today's card features a panel where I have stamped the background-but with a gorgeous floral stamp, not a background stamp!  It's a great way to get a bit more mileage from your favorite stamps.
 
 
{ippity}'s "Now & Always" stamp set includes both the solid flower image (used on the bottom panel) and the coordinating open flower image (used on the label).  I love that they compliment each other so well!  The bottom panel is made by stamping the green flower first, then masking it before stamping the red and blue flowers.  I used some rich Distress Ink colors, too, which look great with the kraft cardstock.
 
This technique looks great on patterned paper, too!  Check out this card where I used the same floral stamp to create an elegant floral border on grid paper:
 
 
Thanks for popping by today!  Happy Thanksgiving from my family to yours!
xoxo-sherri
