Berry Petals

Hi All
           You may have noticed there is a technique trending at the moment called the Eclipse Technique.  The basic premise is that you stamp your backgound area usually works best in Whisper White or Very Vanilla as the base card.  Then you cut out a section of the background area sometimes with large letters to spell a name or greeting or other times with a shape. 

I went with a large shape in the case of the card below as I don't have the large letter dies.  Once you've stamped the background then you cut out the section with the dies/punches.  You adhere the largest section to your base card with adhesive and then pop the cut out section up on dimensionals being sure to line up the background pattern like a jigsaw.  Thus giving it an "Eclipse" look as you can see the background card through the popped up section.
