I pulled out my Heartfelt Creations stamps and matching Spellbinders dies to create some wonderful layered flowers.  I stamped with Versamark and embossed with Ranger silver pearl powder on white paper.  Then I used Quick Quotes chalking inks to color the flowers.  Before I assembled them I squirted them with a bit of water and on the back with a stylus I distressed them.  Heartfelt Creations teaches this technique in their classes.  I am sure you can find a tutorial on their site.  Finally, I popped up the layers with pop dots.
