METHOD

To make my card front using crackled DSP, I first glued thick Whisper White to the back of it. 

I then trimmed it to size. I used my Stitched Shapes Framleits to cut out my side focal window onto the edge, but making sure I had the Whisper White side facing up. 

This way the stitches were visible on the white side where needed 😉

I then nested a layering Oval with the Stiched shape oval and cut a Berry Burst frame for my focal area. I glued this into place and then trimmed off the excess.

I punched two daisies using thick whisper white. I then daubed my colour onto the flowers. I have made a little video showing the flower colouring technique HERE

I stamped the leaves onto the white side of the oval in Lemon Lime Twist and added my daisy.

I adhered my card front onto the card base using dimensionals. 

I then glued the oval stamped images and the flower into place straight onto the card base.
