One of the benefits of using CTMH’s clear stamps is that you can see through them while you are stamping. The Beautiful You stamp set contains some fun 3-step stamps that would be nearly impossible to use without the benefit of being able to see exactly where you are stamping.
I used Bashful, Pixie and Raspberry inks to stamp the flower on this card. Because I could see through each layered stamp, I was able to perfectly stamp each color on top of the other to create the multicolored rose. The leaves are stamped with Sweet Leaf and Fern. This set also comes with coordinating Thin Cuts Dies to perfectly die cut each image as well. (LOVE the Thin Cuts!) Or if you'd rather, you can order the stamp set separately and then “fussy cut” the images with Micro-Tip Scissors.
After creating the flower, I scored and folded a piece of 4¼" x 11" White Daisy cardstock in half and then embossed the bottom ⅔ portion of the card front with the Rose Embossing Folder. I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment in Pewter ink just above the score line. (The stamp actually has a slight curve to it because it was created to coordinate with the banners in the Golden Moments Cut Above Card Kit, but because it is a clear stamp, I was able to manipulate it enough on my block to make it straight. (Gotta love CTMH’s clear stamps!)
