Happiness Always (Altenew Stamps)

Hi Everyone,

I hope you had a great weekend. I have a card to share with you featuring the layering stamps from Altenew's Beautiful Day stamp set.



I wanted to keep the focus on the stamp so I kept the background simple. I started with a Cream colored base and embossed it with the Swiss Dots embossing folder and then added another embossed layer this time using the Swirls embossing folder.
I stamped the flower in the following order: Layer 1--Milled Lavendar Distress Ink, Layer 2--Victorian Velvet Distress Ink, Layer 3--Hot Mama (SSS), Layer 4--Seedless Preserves Distress Ink
I fussy cut the flower and then added the leaves behind it, which I also layered stamp and fussy cut as well. I added the flower to a plain panel of PTI Cream card stock and then added the sentiment, which is an old wood stamp from Stampin Up' that I've had for years.
I added some Wink of Stella glitter pen and some stickles to the flower for some pizazz to finish the card.


That is all for me today. I hope you have a great Monday and I will see you all again soon!
