I've been mulling over Tuesday's color combo which itself wasn't too challenging, but with the dessert of no-stamping, I was a bit stumped. Today's ways to use it was to use ovals and I decided to combine the two challenges. I cut a vanilla piece then embossed my oval. I then used the 2nd ef to add the design-trying not to overlap the two too much....not quite successful, so I then used a craft knife to cut out the oval. I die cut my flowers and used a stylus to press in the centers then added pearls.Onto the base, I hand-wrote my sentiment which I think my mom will like! I popped the oval window panel over the base.
