Triple time stamping

We made a card using this technique at club in August and I challenged my stamping ladies to try this technique using a different stamp set. Here are the cards that they came up with. Pretty talented group !!!
 Diane's card
by Dorris
 Jackie's card
 by Joy
Lynn's card
 by Marlene
Tiffani's card
my card, with a twist, note the three staggered panels
 
Measurements for the original card: neutral card layers-4 x 5 1/4, 3 x 4 1/4, 2 x 3 1/4, card base-4 1/4 x 5 1/2, other colored layers-3 1/4 x 4 1/2, 2 1/4 x 3 1/2.

Stack 3 neutral layers using temporary adhesive and stamp, then separate and attach to colored layers to make finished card!
