For this technique I used a number of stamp sets all from Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co.  I stamped the Butterfly/Flower circle from the Oriental Joy set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on the cover of the album, colored it with Copic markers and added Wink of Stella Brush in clear on the butterfly and flowers.  Thinking of You is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and is from the new Roses set.

 

On the first page I stamped both the miss you from the Great Flowers set and the double Cornflowers from the Cornflowers set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them with Copic markers.  The border was punched with a Martha Stewart Deco Fans punch and adhered to the right edge.

 

The center two pages were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  The rose from the Roses set was colored with Copic markers and adhered to a Spellbinders Labels Ten die cut.  The butterfly and the Hello sentiment are from the Butterfly Sayings set and the butterfly border is from the Flower Blocks set.

 

For the last page I used the Let's Hang Out sentiment from the Tree Frogs set. The flowers are punched with a Stampin' Up Pretty Petals punch and enamel dot stickers were placed in the center of each flower.  A small strip of Washi paper was added on the bottom.
