For the focal image panel, I stamped the set’s text block image repeatedly in kraft colored ink on a kraft panel, completely covering it with text. After inking the panel’s edges with distress ink, I stamped the set’s dandelion image twice at the bottom edge of the panel using a cream pigment ink. The flowers stand out nicely against the kraft, but are still subtle.I dug through my patterned paper stash for a while before finding a scrap of peach patterned paper to use along the right side of the card. I edged it with strips of peach and kraft cardstock before attaching it to a cream panel. The stamped panel is layered on top. I stamped one of the set’s sentiments on a peach cardstock strip in kraft ink and attached that to the left side of the card, overlapping the image panel. I used some more of the ribbon left over from our March May Arts ribbon feature to make a pretty double looped bow to accent the edge of the sentiment panel.
