Make It Monday, #127, Double Backgrounds

It's a good thing there was a "Make It Monday" today, as I was going to go into withdrawal from not making cards, now that Summer Card Camp is ending today! And I welcomed the excuse to make another card with Meadow Greens, which is now my favourite stamp set of all time. I Case'd Dawn McVey's layout, stamping the flower image onto the kraft background in ivory ink first, then the fern in kraft ink over top. Then I stamped the die cuts of the flower and leaves for the focal point. I cut Mat Stack #1, and it's coordinating mat, to ground the flower and leaves. I stamped a fern in kraft ink onto the Mat Stack, but stamped it off once, first. The sentiment is from "Bigger Blooms" and was done in Chocolate Brown Ink.
All materials are from PTI. Thanks for looking!
