Step 1: Using the MAKE ART STAY-tion and 9x9 Craft Sheet, on a piece of Wendy Vecchi Perfect Cardstock, stamp a flower and leaves from the stamp set, Flowers Say It All, in Watering Can Archival Ink. Mask off flowers and leaves to be able to stamp more flowers and leaves in the foreground, to give it a dimensional look.
