Faux Pressed Flowers and Embedded Embossing - TLC728 featuring KSS

I am so excited to see you today! Thanks for dropping by!!

Today's Technique Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers seemed the perfect technique to create this floral Valentine sponsored by Kitchen Sink Stamps.

I first stamped the carnations on both colored cardstock and white cardstock. I then die cut part of the white panel with a frilly heart die. I then carefully aligned the flowers to get a perfect match before gluing down the white heart and running both through my Gemini Junior.  I love the way this Valentine turned out!
