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!
