Look at this beeuutie


Does it look complicated?

It's not. Grab your repositionable adhesive (Dotto in the good 'ol days) and let's get at 'er.

You just want to cut varying sizes of cardstock (looks nicest if they're the same color....I used Very Vanilla). It doesn't matter if they're the same shape even, the technique is still the same.

Put a bit of the Dotto on the back of each and stick together. Then stamp as desired, make sure to go over the edges. That's where the fun is.


Don't worry if it doesn't stamp clearly around the layer edges, like mine didn't. That crap gets covered anyways.

Ideally, you cut layers of coordinating cardstock to mat each piece already.



Then you peel apart the base (vanilla) pieces and stick them to the coordinating colored piece.



Glue those babies together and make yerself a card, would ya?

I used:

Very Vanilla (101650) and Midnight Muse (126843) cardstock.
Midnight Muse (126860) and River Rock (126977) Classic ink.
Midnight Muse stitched ribbon (126847)
Everything Eleanor stamp set (124164c 124162w) and Upsy Daisy stamp set (oops, I thought it was still current, sorry....it's not)

Some thoughts: just because I used all one color, and the same kind of shape doesn't mean you have to. Imagine one done with leaves and fall colors,or one in bright colors with circles of different sizes in different spots on the card.....ooh the possibilities!
