To stay true to one layer and still be able to have that flower stem go "behind" the lettering, you might want to make friends with masking fluid (try an artist supply place or I believe Maya Road make one now so maybe a LSS). You just paint a tiny bit over the section of you letter you want to stay at the front and let it dry. Stamp your image and then gently rub the mask film away - voila! It lets you mask very fiddly detail that wouldn't really be oossible with cut out Post It notes.Angelnorthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15500609851836404915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2961803569126459362.post-39898335893822568362011-02-16T19:04:04.976+10:002011-02-16T19:04:04.976+10:00Well this time I am sure my card suits this challe...Well this time I am sure my card suits this challenge thank you for the venue your cards are inspirationalShirley-Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06203660097242725136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2961803569126459362.post-65645186413957074492011-02-16T18:53:39.039+10:002011-02-16T18:53:39.039+10:00What an inspiring blog this is!

I will have to do other types though, as I get bored with the same style.
