Instructions:

1.     Score and fold the thick basic white card base.

2.     Emboss the 4 x 5¼” piece with the layered florals embossing folder and attach to the base card using glue.

3.     On the scrap piece stamp the flowers in old olive ink.  Color flowers with the light highland heather blend and light lemon lolly blend.  Using the wink of stella on the leaves.  Being careful, I added a bit to the flowers too.  Not too much or the old olive ink will blend and make it yucky. Then die cut the flowers and the label using the thoughtful expressions dies.

4.     Use the circle punch to create your circle from the vellum paper.

5.     Stamp your greeting on your 1 x 3” piece of white cardstock in old olive ink and flag one end with paper snips.

6.     Using glue attach flower piece to vellum circle.  Then glue that piece to the die cut label.  Attach to the card front using dimensionals as shown in the picture.

7.     Using dimensionals add your greeting as shown in picture.

8.     Add iridescent rhinestone jewels to the card front as shown in picture.
