This is for Sharon's Stamp Simply challenge. This week's Featured Design Team member is Dee Jackson. We were to make a card with two- or three-step stamping and try to incorporate flowers, butterflies or birds in our design. Check it out here: Blogs at Splitcoaststampers
I only have a few two step stamps and I chose one of my favorites, Blossoms Abound, for my card. I made a grid background first, then stamped it with Linen, French Script and Itty Bitty Backgrounds and sponged it lightly to show the grid. I stamped the flowers and leaves and the sentiment using my SAMJ to align the images.
Congratulations, Sharon, on your one year blog anniversary and thanks for another great challenge!
