Layered Thoughts

Best Thoughts is my favourite Hostess Set in the new catalogue!

Hostess Sets are special discounted items that can only be purchased on a $200 order. So, host a party or stock up on supplies and get this lovely stamp set.

I used an Aqua-Painter on the stamped image to give it a pale watercolour effect.

By cutting sections from multiple images and layering them with dimensionals (foam adhesive dots) I created a 3D Paper Tole flower.

Use your Big Shot and Ovals framelits to cut a window in the mat. Then score 1/4 in. from the edges with your Simply Scored Tool. Adhere the mat to the card front with dimensionals.

-stamp the image 3 times on Whisper White card stock with Old Olive ink
-brush water on the inked lines with an Aqua-painter to soften and colour the image
-cut out the top layer as shown

-cut the middle layer as shown

-cut the bottom layer as shown

-stamp the stem and leaves of the image 2 times on Pear Pizzazz card stock with Old Olive ink

-adhere single leaves to the back of middle layer
