Instructions -
Use the Circle Die to cut a large hole in the Red card-base. Then run the card-base through the "Birds and Swirls" embossing folder. Use the Gold Paint Pen to edge the round opening. Set the card-base aside.
Stamp the Wreath -
Stamp the Fern in Bamboo ink.
Next stamp the Large Frog in Neptune ink. Then stamp the Small Frog in Split Pea ink. Repeat with Green Tea ink.
Stamp the Flower in Cyan ink, then again in Lapislazuli. Center this wreath in the opening you made earlier on the card-base and glue down.
Next, make the medallion:
Stamp "Thinking of you today" in Cyan ink on a White scrap. Use the Small Frog in Laurel Leaf ink to make a small rectangular border. Use the Chalk to colorize the frog border. Then stamp the Flower in Burgundy, Camellia, and Neptune. Cut out the stamped sentiment, following the path of the stamped images. Glue to Yellow card stock, trim, and then glue a second time to Red card stock, trimming away the excess. Use PopIt! Shapes to attach the medallion to the card base.
Attach Blue Polka Dotted Ribbon and the Red Tattered Thread to the card front, below the medallion.
Do you remember the blog in which we used Adhesive Pearls to write on? This time we will make some Lady Bugs out of Pearl colored Adhesive Pearls. Use the Red Sharpie to color three Adhesive Pearls. Then use the Black Sharpie to make dots on all three "bugs." Adhere the Lady Bugs in their respective places on the card-front and use the Black Sharpie to draw in little feet and feelers. Give yourself a satisfied smile and you're all done!
