I cut the cream card stock and stacked them together and stamped images from Lacy and Lovely as well as the Lilacs from Painted Posies. I unstacked them and then put the Lavender card stock layers between them. I wrapped lace ribbon around the top four layers before adhering. I stamped the sentiment from Live Like You Mean It onto a scrap of cream card stock and then slipped the ends into a 'petal' of the blossom punch to give it a decorative edge. I sponged Lav. Lace around the edges, added a lavender brad at one end and stuck the hat pin through the brad and behind the second layer. I added a glue dot just behind the largest bead of the hat pin to keep it from sliding and another glue dot at the end of the sentiment which I arched. I added some pearls and a glittery butterfly. [Special thanks to my Alpha-pal Dani for the beautiful hat pin].

Lovely for Letter L. Great job with the triple stamping technique! You even used a stamp set that has two "L"s in the name. Love the lavender matting. I like the sentiment for Letter L and it's something we should learn. Pretty embellishments. Wonderful card. TFS

Gina, this card is awesome! Lavender and lace and live and love...........lots of 'L's. Your triple layer stamping is done perfectly. A very pretty sentiment tag and great to join it with a beautiful hat pin from Dani. And that beautiful glittery butterfly is a perfect embellishment.

just commenting on this now. I must have missed your posting. I love this technique of triple stamping. The lace works well with the Lacey & Lovely stamp set. I don't think I would ever have thought of that. Love your gorgeous butterfly on this too.
