What a great challenge Kris has given us over at Sunny Challenges & Creations. "Triple Layer Card". I have never made one of these previously & of course, me being me, decided that I would not do your typical Triple Layer as I sort of off-centred it a little, including having my layers a little smaller too.Measurements -

Supplies -
Ink Set - Rue Des Fleur, Established Elegance, En Francais
Ink - Crumb Cake, Pool Party
Cardstock - Whisper White, Crumb Cake, Pool Party
Ribbon - 1/2" Seam Binding - Pool Party
Accessories - Snail Adhesive
I run a small piece of Snail Adhesive on the backs of the small pieces of Whisper White Cardstock - this Snail should be so that it is temporary. I placed the pieces on top of each other so that you think you are actually going to stamp one piece of Cardstock. I inked my Background Stamp with Crumb Cake, stamped off once & then stamped over all 3 pieces of Whisper White. I decided what I wanted for my main image & stamped it in Pool Party - Umbrella. The remainder of the images were randomly stamped over the pieces of Cardstock in Pool Party & Crumb Cake Inks.Once my images had been stamped, my cards were carefully separated & the Crumb Cake Matts were adhered to the corresponding Whisper White pieces. As I didn't want anything else on the card, I adhered all 3 pieces into place, ensuring that the stamped images matched prior to adhering.
To finish my card, I tied a small bow with Seam Binding & attached to the card.
We hope you will find the time to play along with us this week, as it is a great challenge & the perfect time to create one of these great cards. Believe me, once you do one, you will be hooked.
