Paper Girls Challenge #3

The third challenge on the Paper Girls Challenge Blog was to use stamps.  I had started this card weeks ago, and it was the push I needed to finish it.

I use a Unity stamp I got from my friend Misty when she de-stashing a little.  I stamped the half flower with brown ink on a scrap from Fancy Pants Little Sprout.  I then cut the shape out and apart.  The area that wasn't stamped at all I filled in with twine (ran the piece through my Xyron X and then laid the twine on that).  I decided to flip the little center piece over to get some more contrast in the image.  Then I took a piece of solid cardstock and stamped some flowers from JilliBean Soup Pasta Fagioli.  I don't love how some of the stamps appear, but I like the overall effect on the card.  I finished it up by stamping the sentiment (that I got when my friend Erica was de-stashing stamps) on another scrap from Little Sprout.
