One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Make It Monday #42 - Layered Background with Sentiment stamp

This week, Betsy is demonstrating the layered background look using sentiment stamps. You can go here to see the video.  I used the Mat Stack #1 die and then because I do not have the layerz mats or the mega mats, I had to trace and cut because I wanted to frame the mat stack.  I stamped O Christmas tree with black ink, but stamping it off one time first.  The tree is from Merry and Bright.  The dp is Basic Grey Nordic Holiday.
