Run the Dusty Blue card stock through the “Swiss Dots” embossing folder and then smudge some of the raised areas with the Atlantic ink. Set aside.
Use the dies to cut the following:
Orange circle measuring 3.75 inches in diameter
White circle measuring 3.25 inches in diameter
Blue circle measuring 3-3/8 inches
Take the Orange circle and run it through the “Tiny Bubbles” embossing envelope. Edge with the Gold Paint Pen. Set aside.
Take the White circle and stamp the following:
Mini Flower in Lapislazuli
Tiny Open Flower in Archival Black
Leaves in Sage
Fern in Green Tea
Berries in Bark
Then color in the Open Flower using the Orange colored pencil and a very light touch! Edge the circle with the Gold Paint Pen. Glue this stamped piece to the Blue circle you cut out earlier and then glue the resulting piece to the Orange circle. Glue the layered medallion to the card base.
Next, attach the ribbon to the card base and get ready to make the medallions.
Medallions
On a White card stock scrap, stamp “Dear Friend” and “sending you love” in Archival Black ink. Use the Square Punch to cut them out. Then use the VersaMark ink and the Tiny Open Flower to make a background on each medallion. Chalk with the Wedgewood Chalk. Then edge both sentiments with the Gold Paint Pen and mount onto the card base with PopIt! Tape.
Last, make the Floral Cut-out:
Stamp an assortment of Flowers, Leaves, Ferns, and Berries. Color in the Tiny Open Flower with Orange and Blue Colored Pencils. Cut all the pieces out and mount on Green card stock. Trim the Green paper, leaving a pinstripe of Green showing. Attach this to the card and you're done!
