INSTRUCTIONS: The ready card base from white smooth cardstock measures 5 1/2″ x 71/2 “. Cut 5 strips measuring 5” x7” from the designer paper of Classic Petunia Collection and distress all the sides with distress ink Seedless Preserves. Distress all the 4 sides of all the 5 strips using Tim Holtz Distressing tool or sharp scissors. Once all the strips are ready paste them on the white cardstock measuring 51/4″ by 71/4″, leaving a very little space in between all the strips.

Choose a patterned paper with a floral print from the same collection and hand tear as shown. Foam mount it on the front panel of the card. Insert few white die cut pieces under the torn edges to add an extra accent. Layer the prepared card front on the card base using foam dots.

Cut 2 pieces of Medallion dies from white cardstock along with their base and arrange them on the card front as shown.

For shaping the foam flowers, follow Emma’s video. Stamp the multiple images of Petunias using Plum Archival Ink and cut them using their coordinating dies. Color the petals using Gallery Dry Oil Pastels 210, 256, and 241. Hold the petals with the stylus from the center and blow heat with Heat Gun, Shape them a little with a ball tool and crush between your fingers. Glue 2 big petal on the base and one medium petal on the top for larger flower and 2 medium and one second medium for a smaller flower. Press them in the center and arrange the flower. Prick the center and put pollens. The small filler flowers are from Classic Rose Collection. These are stamped with Plum Archival, cut with their coordinating dies, colored using distress ink Seedless Preserves and shaped using Deluxe Fower Shaping Kit.

For Leaves, stamp multiple images from Classic Rose Collection on white cardstock with Library Green and color them using Olive Green and Fern Green. Cut them out with their Coordinating dies.Mist them with water and shape them using Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit.

Once all the elements are ready, arrange a flower bouquet as shown. Twist few golden pearl pollens together and glue them in the bouquet to add an extra accent.
