Hello My Crafty Friends,
I hope you are all off to a great new week!! Today, I have a super Lovely card using both the 2-Step and Triple Stamping Technique on todays card.   

You may be wondering what is the "Triple Stamping Technique" well basically it's stamping on three layers of card stock and stamping off each layer like my card below.  

As for the 2-step stamping it's using two images, the bottom stamp is usually a lighter color and the top stamp is a darker inked image on top of the lighter one.  I hope this made sense for you!  If not don't worry I'm working on editing some videos to share sometime soon on these techniques!

The beautiful stamp used for this card is the 

Stippled Blossoms item #126747 and OMG! check 

out the Vintage Fauceted Designer Buttons item#127555 

above with some twine and a rhinestone, isn't it 

LOVELY and so VINTAGE????

I used Island Indigo and Whisper White for this 

card along with Pool Party and Island Indigo 

Classic Ink pads.
