The finished project

Create a stunning nature-inspired card featuring a detailed tree stamped in multiple colours. Using sponge daubers to apply different ink colours to various parts of the stamp, you'll build up a beautiful, multi-toned tree design on white cardstock with a kraft border. This technique allows you to achieve depth and dimension with a single stamp, creating an eye-catching focal point for your handmade card.
