Good morning everyone, hope you are well :-) I am here with a card using the technique I accidently came across when I started making CAS cards. I was stamping directly onto a card blank but made a mistake and stamped over an image but slightly off centre-but I have found it to be really effective at making the image pop so it has become my favourite technique! I used Stampin Up stamp sets which I stamped with Memento ink in a baby blue first then slightly off centre in the teal to create my shadow and body to the image. I cut round the image with a nestie and paired with a Tim Holtz cardstock mat. I then added a panel of Capsule collection paper by Papermania and used a stampin up greeting on foam pads which I had placed on a stamped and die cut panel. I then added three complimenting gems in the opposite corner.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
ABC Challenge: Open
Card and Scrap: Use Flowers
Country View Challenges: Die Cuts
House of Gilli: Your fave colour combo
Sparkles Monthly Challenge: Monochromatic
Make it Monday: Anything Goes
Make My Monday: CAS Flowers

Thank you for looking and for all your lovely comments :-)
