Thoughts of Spring for Just for Fun Rubber Stamps



Good morning!  Welcome to my newest project for Just for Fun Rubber Stamps.  I am excited to be able to share with you today.

For my card I started with the white card base and then cut a mat of pink card stock. I attached the mat to the center of the card front.  I cut another mat for the card front using aqua card stock and a Lacy Squares  die cut on a die cut machine.  Attach to the center of card front.  I cut a piece of white card stock and then I stamped the Queen's Anne Lace (F2716).  I stamped the image with the lighter aqua ink and then stamped a second image on top of the first just slightly off using the Stamp-a-ma-jig for placement using the darker aqua ink.  I added a couple of pink pearls to embellish.  Add the stamped image to the center of the card front.
