Timeless Tulips

 

This is a simple versatile card.

Begin with whisper white cardstock 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 scored at 4-1/4

Using the Timeless Tulips stamp set and a colour of your choice this card is made using the 
Polished Pink ink pad.
Put the largest Tulip stamp and the medium one on a clear block of an appropriate size.
Stamp in a position you like. Attach the stem to a clear block and using Mossy Meadow ink pad add the stems to the tulips. 
Note: It is a good idea to practice on a scrap piece of paper, so you can see how the stem attaches to the flower. It is better to go a little higher than too low.

It is nice to stamp the smallest tulip on the inside of the card.
Stamp a sentiment of your choice.
