Double Stack Stamping

I am sure you have seen the simple technique of stack stamping if you have been checking out other demonstrators' blogs. I just had to try it for my last class. Wow! What wonderful results.
Cut Wild Wisteria cardstock 8 1/2"x 5 1/2". Score the long side at 4 1/4"and fold. Cut the first layer of Very Vanilla to measure 4 " x 5 1/4". Cut the second layer, Wild Wisteria card stock to measure 3 1/4" x4 1/2". Cut the third layer of Very Vanilla to measure 3" x 4 1/4". Use a small amount of adhesive to attach the smaller piece of Very Vanilla to the center of the larger one. Stamp the Very Vanilla pieces with the largest stamp form the Creative Elements stamp set using Wild Wisteria ink. Hint: Start in the center. The stamped images should flow from the center panel to the outer one. Now randomly stamp the flower from the same stamp set,making sure that some of these images overlap onto the bottom panel. Center and glue the smallest piece onto the smallest piece of Wild Wisteria. Using glue dots attach a 5 " piece of Wild Wisteria ribbon on the lower portion of this piece. Then center and attach this to the larger peice of Very Vanilla. making sure to align the images on the two stamped panels. Finall glue this to the card base. Punch out a Wild Wisteria scalloped oval. Stamp a sentiment onto a piece of Very Vanilla and cut it out with an oval punch which is slightly smaller than the scalloped oval. Glue them together and adhere then to the ribbon.
