Hello! The Carnation is the Birth Flower for January and I always like to make a card for the flower-of-the-month, if I can. I usually have used this stamp to color in, and I just sortof decide what color I want, but this time I wanted to use the stamp as a background.
I simply stamped the Jumbo - January Carnation in purple ink, onto lavender cardstock and die cut the panel.
I then cut out a sentiment in white cardstock, and used the same purple stamping ink to color the die cut. I layered this over a sentiment cut from glitter cardstock, and voila, my card is finished.

This stamp does come in a smaller version, as to all in the Birth Flowers series. These are probably my favorite stamps in the store.
