BSS MONDAY IDEA - THREE LAYER CARD

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff Monday Idea.
Today's idea is a three layer card.
It's a simple technique. Cute three layers.
Example, 5x4, 41/4x3 1/2, and 3 3/4x3
But, these layers can be any size you want to fit the card you are making.
Using a large background stamp OR stamping a smaller stamp all over the layer, fill the
layers with your stamped image. If you want to color it in that's fine. If it is a solid stamp like I used, you can ink it with clear ink and emboss. Make mats for each layer and adhere to a card.
I popped up each layer with pop dots for added interest.
This is a close up of the embossing and layers.
Here is my finished card.
Stamps - Background stamp Penny Black Cling, Floral Thread (40-135)
Happy Hopper Bee, Stampabilities - HMLR 1044 (there are two bunnies on the
stamp, I fussy cut just one out for this card.
Paper - Black card stock, and yellow textured card stock
Colored with Copic Markers
Kaiser Pearls (HINT: I used white pearls and colored them
with a Copic Marker to match, prior to adhering them to my card
Embossing powder - Stampendous Fran-tage - Shabby White (with gold glitter) Love this stuff,
it's thick!
White glitter on the wings.
Butterflies Martha Stewart punch.

Thanks for stopping by, have a great Monday. Until later..............
