Lotus Blossom Card

Today's card is my final Leadership Swap Card I have to share with all of you. This card came together quickly since the Lotus Blossom stamp set is so easy to use. Even if you don't stamp it perfect, the lotus flower image stills comes out nicely.

For this card, I stamped the lotus image twice in Crisp Cantaloupe for the first image and Crisp Cantaloupe stamped off once for the second image on Very Vanilla cardstock. I stamped the third lotus image in Calypso Coral which paired with Crisp Cantaloupe perfectly. I stamped the stems in Pistachio Pudding. I added the greeting from the stamp set in Calypso Coral and punched it out using the Large Oval Punch. I punched out Pistachio Pudding cardstock using the Decorative Label Punch and added it behind the large oval layer.  I added a little bit of Watercolor Wonder Washi tape to the bottom of the Very Vanilla layer then adhered it to a layer of the Best Year Ever (SAB) DSP. Finally I layered everything onto a Crisp Cantaloupe card base.
