Half sheet c/s size
I saw this print about six months ago and saved it for a card idea, so here it is. The colors are a little lighter than the skirt. I mask the flowers while stamping the print. Stamped the flower using a stamp positioner and used pencils for color. Direct to paper the edges of all layers. The area around the cheetah was done with a loose thread I pulled from the pad and just pressed on the c/s. CanÂ’t waste ink!!! The dimensional flower is on the image corner.

WOW - very striking combo. Now I gotta look to fabric for inspirations - what a neat idea. I already do this for color combos, but never thought about caseing the print.

Great card. I chuckled at the "loose thread" accents! How many times I have just thrown those strings into my garbage, when I could have been using them to stamp on my card! LOL!
