I set aside the bling and glitter and tried for a more subtle version of fabulous. I CASE'd this idea and layout from a card on Splitcoast Stampers. The large flower is stamped in Groovy Guava and then masked*. I used the flourish from Baroque Motifs for the vines. The greeting is stamped with Close to Cocoa and then I used a blender pen to fill in the letters with Groovy Guava ink. I love the look of coloring the letters - it really makes the letters "pop"!
*Masking: You can use the masking technique to make one image appear as if its in front of another. In this sample, the flower was stamped first, then masked, and the vines were stamped last. For step-by-step instructions on how to mask an image, check out my tutorial! Just click on Tutorials on the left hand side and look for Masking.

Love this, beautiful card -- now I definitely need this set. It looks so beautiful with my favorite, Barquoe Motiffs.
