Today's Card Uses a Lavinia Floral Stamp
I embossed the card base using a leaf folder. Put artists mask on the square and left to dry before using 3 Distress Inks to create the background. Left to dry ( how patient - of course you could heat dry it!) and then rubbed the artists mask off to reveal the white. Stamped the image with black Versafine and added Liquid Pearls to highlight. Added some raffia string and mounted to finish.
