This is very similar to my first inspiration card for this challenge, using different stamps and techniques. I die cut a square of DP to fit my stamp, stamped the bloom with black Versafine Clair ink, then heat embossed it using several layers of clear UTEE. After it cooled down I bent it around a bit (very technical term here!) to make it crack, then sponged rust coloured DI into the cracks, it shows more IRL but this was the best photo I could get!. I matted onto a larger square of the DP , stamped the sentiment and added the die cut frame.
Thanks for visiting, don't forget to check out Stamping Sensations for some lovely inspiration from the team - hope you'll be inspired to join in.

Love the effect you achieved here Chris, the panel looks great, wondered if it might be UTE but wasn't sure.

Great technique to stamp on DSP. This image over the DSP looks like a large eye. I am drawn in to look at it to see the details.
Another fabulous card Chris, love the bold flower with orang/black colours. The UTEE technique looks great, haven't done that for ages, thanks for the prompt.
