I saw a beautiful card during the Swap and Share in Fiji and just had to come home and figure out how to do it!! It was amazing and I wanted to share with my club members and anyone else reading this!!
This is the card we did in class - love, love the new Flower Shop Stamp Set and coordinating Pansy Punch. I used the Sassy Salutations sentiment which, BTW, is on sale at 25% discount (normally $23.95 for the Wood Mount - now $17.96 and $17.95 for the Clear Mount and now $13.46 - just good until June 30th!! Get yours NOW!!)
So how did I do this technique? Really, cool and really simple. I stamped the flowers in VersaMark on our Vellum Card Stock. Then covered them with white embossing powder and heat set it. I then sponged ink over the back of the vellum - and cut them out with the pansy punch! How cool is that! Love the way it looks - soft and subtle color, but definitely there is color!

I stamped the "leaves" from Secret Garden and the sentiment on the Whisper White first and then ran it through the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder. I attached th eflowers with dimensionals
Here's another one I made - I used sponge daubers to get the differetn colors on the back of the vellum
