Instructions
Take the Dusty Blue card base and stamp the following in Black ink:
Stamp the Large Flower
Stamp the Smaller Flower
Stamp the Berries
Then use the Light Blue Colored Pencil to color in some of the Large Flowers.
Set the card-base aside for now.
Make the Label
Using White card stock, cut out a rectangle and then remove the top two corners, to form a label. Stamp the following:
Large Flower in Black ink
Smaller Flower in Khaki ink
Leaves in Bark
Berries in Khaki
Then color in the Large Flower with the Blue and Yellow Colored Pencils.
Edge the label with the Gold Paint Pen and Glue to a slightly larger piece of Light Blue card stock. Trim away the excess Light Blue paper.
Then attach to the card using the two eyelets and the ribbon. As embellishment, tie some embroidery thread through the eyelets.
Make the Heart Medallion
Last, stamp the “Just for you” sentiment in Black ink on a White scrap of paper. Cut out with a heart-shaped punch. Then use the Small Flower and Sage ink around the stamped sentiment. Use the Yellow Chalk and a chalk pad to colorize the flower. Then edge the Heart with the Gold Paint pen and nestle the heart medallion among the ribbons you added to the card earlier. That's it!
