I used the emboss-resist technique for these cards. I began each card with a white base and layered with an embossed white panel. I
embossed various flowers in clear and sprayed with a variety of Smooch Spritz colours. I stamped the Hero Arts "Happy Anniversary" sentiment (see set below), trimmed and affixed to each card.
