To start this card I die cut a piece of smooth white cardstock using the Postage Stamp Layout Die.  I then used Distress Oxide Ink Kitsch Flamingo to blend some pink onto the little rectangles, and adhered them, along with the postage stamp frame, to light blue cardstock for my background.

Next, I stamped out these gorgeous images from the Succulent Garden Stamp Set.  I colored them with copic markers and cut them out using the coordinating die set.

I stamped the sentiment, which is from the Succulent Garden Stamp Set, onto the top middle rectangle in black pigment ink and clear heat embossed for some shine!

I assembled my card using dark blue cardstock for the base, and popped up the images with foam tape for some dimension!
