Today's post is about layered stamping with floral designs from Altenew. I'm more than halfway through Level One of the AECP courses. The latest class that inspired this post is All About Layering Four. There are many different stamp sets from which to choose but the layering genius behind them is the same. Line up the images based on the guidelines provided on the packaging or downloaded from Altenew's website and create lovely flowers with depth and detail.

Tip for easy stamping
Using a stamp positioner makes lining up the stamps very easy. It allows for precise placement and also gives you repeatability for well-stamped images. I placed a piece of white cardstock in my Misti and stamped both flowers and the leaves at the same time. It was easy to swap out the stamps for each layer. On one set of flowers I used the same ink color for layers one and two, and on the second set used the darkest color twice for layers three and four. It is ok to use as many or as few colors as you like even though there are four layers.
Something was missing in the upper right corner but another flower made it seem too heavy. As butterflies are light, this seemed like a good addition to the sequins and Gelly Roll highlights. The little butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch.
