Here is the second card using the Sweet Stems image. Each image is stamped with Palette Noir Black and then cut and mounted on a scallop oval. Different colored Stickles and glitter were used to color the petals. This one used a Turquoise Stickles. I paired it with a piece of Flowers for You DS paper. The background was made by using second generation stamping. Sorry the inside of the card looks a different color…

I had originally wanted to use another image I got but when I went to stamp it I realized I did not have an acrylic block big enough for it.
