Step by Step:
- Run the 3 3/4" x 5" whisper white card stock through the Big Shot using the Perfect Polka dots embossing folder. Attach to the 4" x 5 1/4" daffodil delight card stock and then to the 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" whisper white – base of card.
- Using the 1" square punch, notch out the end of the 1 1/4" x 3 3/4" gingham garden dsp – attach to the bottom of the 3 1/2" x 4" daffodil delight card stock – making sure to have the edge of the dsp even with the daffodil delight card stock.
- Take a couple of different pieces of the gingham garden washi tape and tape above the dsp in #2 above.
- Stamp the circle from the Kind and Cozy stamp set using Island Indigo ink and onto a scrap piece of whisper white card stock. Punch out using the 2 1/2" circle punch and put 3 dimensionals on the back of it and attach to the center right of the daffodil delight card stock.
- Using your markers of Island Indigo, Pear Pizzazz and Melon Mambo – ink up the "Thinking of You" stamp from the Kind and Cozy stamp set and stamp onto a scrap piece of whisper white card stock. Punch out using the decorative label punch. Put dimensionals on the back and attach to the center of the Island Indigo stamped circle from #4 above.
- Punch out a leaf using the bird builder punch and scraps of pear pizzazz card stock. Attach to the left of the greeting as shown in the card above using mini glue dots.
- Take a small piece – about the size of a dime – of clay and put a drop of melon mambo ink into the center of the clay. Knead to distribute the ink. Press the colored clay into the mold firmly so that the back of it is nice and flat. Remove carefully from the mold. Attach a rhinestone into the center of the flower clay and allow to dry. Attach to the card – just over the leaf using sticky strip.
- Your card is finished!
