I just can't get enough of this 'faux coisonne' technique! It's going to be my 'go to' method for a long time to come! This is for my lovely friend Carmencita's birthday. For the flowers, I stamped on a calendar picture of Vancouver harbour at sunset

Beautiful! Love the faux cloissone' technique too. I can never do one either, I'm just too curious to see what it might look like on this...or this...or maybe this LOL! Great card. Your girlfriend will love it!

What a fabulous 'go to' method! It is so clever that you stamped on a photo from a calendar- you are making my mind race to all the possiblilities. I love using scraps and discards. You made a treasure for Carmencita! TFS

Pardon me!! You stamped on a picture of MY VANCOUVER HARBOUR - just for a card??? What has the world come too - you know, ON is not where it's all at, though my brother and family in Barrie might beg to differ!!!!
Just joshing ya - I have yet to try this technique - it's really beautiful - but believe you me - I am going to find an Ontario pic to do it with!!! LOL!!!
