For my card, I decided to use 4 of my Outlines Flower Mandala stamps.   Using Versafine black ink and Neenah Classic Crest Solar white paper, I stamped and cut out the following

Flower Mandala 1

Flower Mandala 3, I stamped it a second time to trim out just the center flower portion

Flower Mandala 4

Using Copic markers and Smooch ink to color them.

V12, V15, Plum Twist Smooch

B12, B14, Azure Smooch

R21, R14, Siren Smooch 

For my card base, I used my Cheery Lynn Designs French Flair Stackers die, sliding the die up just a bit so the card has a fold.   I used my new Cheery Lynn Designs Silver Stacker for the dotted paper background.  Next I built the flower, the first layer I adhered right to the background.  For each of the other layers, I used pop ups and twisted the patterns as I went.  Click on the picture on the right for a good view of the lovely dimension of the card.  I added a pearl to the center of the top layer with my Viva Decor Pearl Pen and I was done.  Finished size is 5 5/8" square.
