Sweet Friend - Whimsy Stamps Fern Background...

Hello everyone,

Today I have a card to show you made with a gorgeous new release background stamp from

Ingredients from Whimsy Stamps

I heat embossed the beautiful Fern Stamp in gold onto a green inky background.

When I die cut the background I discovered a happy accident in that the gold edge on the green ink made a lovely frame for the ferns and sentiment!  

I mounted the background in the centre of the accidental frame with tape and added the sentiments as shown.  

The word Sweet is die cut from a spare piece of inky background!

I don't like wasting anything! (:
