To make this card
both stamps are from Impressive stamps Australia the Orchid is a beautiful stamp. Stamp two images of the orchid re-inking stamp between images. Cut one image into a 10cm x 8.5cm piece, this will be the main image. Cut two 1cm strips off left end, trim left side of remaining piece by 1/4cm. Mount the larger piece on dark pink card trim to leave 1/4cm border. Mount this piece to the right, on pink A5 card folded in half. Now affix the two 1cm strips to the left of the mounted image, leaving a tiny space between the two. Colour the second stamp image around the approx area needed. I used watercolour pencils and my Zig water brush fine. I used my Fiskars Templates Circles to cut a dark pink circle I then cut another circle same size around the orchid. I had to trim the orchid circle so that a small border of pink could show. Mount together and carefully place on image on card. The Greeting was stamped on velum. Trim to fit card and rip right side. Also dark pink card trim to fit and rip also on right side. Affix the dark pink card first. I used small brads to hold the velum on.
