Make It Monday #106: Two-Toned Stamped Flowers

 Hello there! I was so happy when I saw that Melissa Phillips http://lilybeanpaperie.typepad.com was hosting the Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday this week. She makes the most beautiful creations. I am a fan!

Melissa showed us how to stamp using multiple colors of ink to bring some real pizzazz to our cards.

Just in time to brighten up some of the gray days we have had here.

I decided to use Papertrey Ink's Frilly Flowers stamps and dies to make a layered flower for the final touch.

I cut the dies and stamped both sides. 

Then, curled and crinkled the flowers using this idea by Ellinee:

 This flower made me happy...

and gave me Spring fever!

And yes, I used Melissa's layout as the jumping off point.

Her cards are so beautiful. 

I could not resist!
