Easter Flower ATC

Created this Easter Flower ATC using Masking technique.
Stamped the Stampin' Up flower on 2 pieces of white cardstock. Stamped the sentiment on the uncut piece. Cut one of the flowers out using an SU die. Covered the uncut flower with the cut flower after stamped ink had dried to mask it. Used Tim Holtz Distress Inks without harming the stamped flower since the cut piece was masking the bottom piece. Took the cut piece away.

Added stickles to flower center that the photo does not show up as nice as it is in person.
