Hi guys!! Mama Elephant has done it again:) The new Studio Calico release features a set of exclusive clear stamps designed by Mama Elephant! (Psst, it's in the add-on Taffy) You saw me use this add-on earlier this week here and today I want to share another card:)

I used some of the beautiful watercolor-look paper from the kit and stamped it with my sentiment. I also stamped some gold hexagons across the top corner. I wanted a more uneven look so I randomly inked up the stamps before stamping. (I thought a full stamping may look to harsh against the softly colored paper:)
The last step was to add a piece of the gold punchinella vellum under the sentiment. I trimmed a piece in an irregular shape to fit under the sentiment strip. I love how it makes the sentiment pop out as if it is pieced.
That's it for me, folks! Next stop on the hop is Nichol! If you get lost, click on over to the Mama Elephant site to get the blog hop list!
