A fun card that I made a while ago.  I stamped the larger polka dots with Papaya ink over top of the reverse polka dot patterned paper.  I used the stamp positioner to get the lanterns lined up just right on the string.

On these cards I just stamped one of the flowers from the Friend to Friend set.  I didn't ink the drooping flower.  I was inspired by the art on the AMuse Studio Catalog. 

Love Pink & Black!
