Large Ginkgo Background with Heron Head
by Zana Clark

Stamp Large Ginkgo background on a bright solid paper in black ink and embossing powder. Stamp the Heron Head on a piece of vellum type paper. Ink and emboss in glittery black. Cut out Heron. Use pastels to accent both the Heron and Ginkgo leaves. Attach Heron in the center of Ginkgo background. Glue a couple of strips of various widths running horizontally on the card base. Add small corrugated squares to accent strips. The vellum styled paper allows for the background
image to subtly show through creating a fantastic illusion of depth.
