Step by Step Instructions

Step 1
Using 5 x 7 card, die cut approx 5cm from right edge of card with the Stitched Hills and Clouds Die. Keep the cut piece as this will make nice hills on another card.

Step 2
Take a second piece of white card, the same size as your base card and colour with the Chalk Cloud inks. Leave to dry for a moment and then lightly splash some water on the card, leave a moment and lift with kitchen towel. This will give you the illusion of faux bleaching areas on the card. Then glue card to the base.

Step 3
Take a piece of bright white foundations card and die cut the medium rose twice, and the small rose 4 times, using the outside cutting edge.

Step 4
Now take the inner cutting die, and using one of the medium flowers, cut out the centre.
Repeat on 2 of the small flowers.

Step 5
Die cut 4 leaves, 2 small and 2 large, from the set and colour with Sweet Apple Chalk Cloud ink.

Step 6
Colour the base flowers with the Princess Pink and Vanilla Twist Chalk Cloud. Once dry, glue flowers together.

Step 7
Next take a sentiment stamp, and ink with the Colour Cloud inks or a colour of your choice. I chose 2 colours and put both onto the stamp before stamping.

Step 8
Glue the flowers to the card, using foam pads for the small flower at the front, to give the appearance of dimensional flowers.

Step 9
Add your leaves, and apply some Cosmic Shimmer Ivory Glue. I also dabbed the end of a paintbrush into some Colour Cloud and popped some little dots onto the card, next to the ivory glue. Once dry, add some Sparkle Star Twinkles in the centre of the flowers, and also over the top of little dots to brighten them up.
