I stamped the Penny Black Exhilaration images onto watercolour card using Green Oasis and Rain Forest Versafine Clair ink pads and ďie cut using a Clarity Crafts die.

I used a Crafters Companion three layers stencil and A5 watercolour card with Fossilised Amber and Evergreen Bough Distress inks to repeat stencil the butterflies and to create a background.  I trimmed to 140mm square and cut into two pieces, one 140mm square and the other 70mm x 140mm.  I inked all the edges.

I created a 148mm square easel card.  I coloured white satin ribbon with Fossilised Amber Distress ink.  I wrapped the ribbon around the bottom edge of the 70mm x 140mm stencilled card.  I attached the background and ledge to the card base.  I attached the stamped image onto the easel card. 

I used John Next Door Chrysanthemum and Small Leaves dies to die cut lots ofchrysanthemums from Sizzix Textured card.  I die cut the small leaves from snippets of glitter card.  Once I had adhered the different sizes of chrysanthemums I adhered them to my ledge and finished with Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops.   Back soon x
