Step by step

---

Step 1
On coconut white card sized 10 x 13cm, stamp the flowers with Versafine ink.

Optional: you can use the Shadow Boxes Collection Scalloped Lattice Frames – Set B to cut this card.
Tip: Versafine gives a nice clear impression and can be coloured with markers or any kind of watercolour without smudging.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 2
Cut the amethyst card to 21.8 x 17cm and colour with Cosmic Shimmer Glitter Kiss in Antique Rose.

Tip: you can use one thin layer so the paper colour still shows, or two thin layers/one thicker layer to cover the paper.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 3
Stamp the sentiment on a small piece of Coconut White card.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 4
Stamp the flowers with the Chalk Cloud ink on a piece of Coconut White card sized 3 x 14.8cm. Tape it to a strip of Wisteria card sized 4 x 14.8cm. Tape the Glitter Kiss card to a white base sized size 14.8 x 19cm and tape the strips on top.

Tip: where it says tape you can also use glue, I find tape very easy and less messy to use on this particular card.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 5
Tape the stamped flowers to the card with foam tape for some extra dimension.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 6
Tape the sentiment in place with foam tape on the bottom part so it is on the same level as the stamped flowers.
