Layering portions of a die-cut is a fun way to create a pocket which today I filled with vellum flowers.
This pocket was made with Spellbinders' Labels Fifteen die cuts. The metal die was also used as a mask for the ink shading and as a template to trace the black outline. The smaller pocket portion wrapped with ribbon was stamped with Flourish Birthday.

Sundial was stamped on vellum with white pigment ink and heat embossed with white powder. On the back of the stamped image, darker highlight tones were added with a dark blue colored pencil then light blue dye ink was rubbed over the entire image with a sponge dauber.
On the front of the flower, a stardust gel pen was scribbled on the petals a little at a time and gently smoothed with my fingertip. A circle die-cut from vellum was pounced with blue ink and stamped on the opposite side with the sentiment. Layering the vellum with a white cardstock circle stiffened the button embellishment before it was attached with dimensional foam.
The card base holding the pocket of flowers is a blue lagoon tent card measuring 2 7/8 x 3 3/4 inches.
Thank you for your visit.
Have a fabulous day,
