First let's look at the new Sweet as Perfume stamp set and Layered Lacey Ovals Die in action...

I love coloring floral images and this little gem was a totally new one for me.  After coloring, I fussy cut the image and added it to the corner.  I thought it would pop with added dimension.  

Here's a closer look at the image...

So here is the break down on how I created this card layer by layer...

5.5 x 8.5 inch white card stock (CS) base; scored and folded at 4.25 inches
