Stamp the Light Lavender piece with the following stamps and inks.
Large Flower in Grape ink. Notice the placement line at the base of the image. Use this line to determine the position of the image. Stamp at the North, South, East, and West points. It is nice to stamp two or three times before reinking for a lighter color with the subsequent impressions, and to rotate the stamp slightly between impressions.
Large Flower again, this time in Canary ink.
Small Flower Cluster in Grape, then in Narcissus, then in Topaz, and finally in Lapislazuli.
Leaf Sprig in Bamboo. The placement line indicates the location of the leaf stem. Point the leaf stem toward the flowers.
Single Leaf in Bamboo.
Attach the ribbon by folding it under this piece and then gluing the Light Lavender paper to the Purple card stock piece. Next, glue the resulting piece to the card base.
Make the Medallion...
Run the Aqua designer paper through the die cut machine using the third-largest die from the set. Edge with the Gold Paint Pen and set aside.
On a White card stock scrap, stamp “you're in my thoughts” using Grape ink. Line up in the fourth-largest die and cut out. Then stamp the Flower Cluster in Hyacinth ink around the border. Use the Wedgewood chalk to colorize the border. Glue this piece to a slightly larger Light Purple card stock scrap and trim away the excess. Glue the Purple label to the Aqua label, then glue down the resulting medallion to the card front, on top of the ribbon you put down earlier.
Add some Adhesive Pearls and your card is finished!
