Instructions: The ready side-fold slimline card from smooth cardstock measures 9 1/2″ by 4 1/2″. To prepare the card base, cut the paper measuring 9″ by 9 1/2 ” and score at 4 1/2″ on 9″ length and crease well. 

For the card front, choose the pattern paper from the Feathery Florals Paper collection and cut measuring 9″ by 4″ and layer it on the ready card base creating a delicate border of 1/16″ on all four sides. Choose another coordinating paper from the same paper collection and cut measuring 8 3/4″ by 3 3/4″ and mat it on the white cardstock making a delicate white border all around. Layer this on the card front using dimensional tapes. 

Cut one piece each using white and gold cardstock using Slim Gateway Rectangle Die and adhere them together keeping the gold one on the bottom a little off-center creating a delicate gold shadow. Layer the die cut on the card front using foam dots. 

Stamp a couple of petals with Hero Arts white pigment ink on Vellum Flowerette cardstock using Classic Rose Stamp set and sprinkle white heat embossing powder. Dust extras and heat set them using a heat tool. Cut the petals using their coordinating die set. Color the petals using Seedless Preserves Distress Oxide ink. spay some water, put the petals in the flower mold and run them through the die-cutting machine. Shape them a little with flower-shaping tools and form 2 large roses and one medium rose. 

Stamp a few wisterias using Cactus archival ink and Cut the using their coordinating die set. Color them using the same ink. 

Stamp 3 leafy vines using Olive Green archival ink on Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper, color them using Leaf Green, and cut them using its coordinating die. Next, shape them using its coordinating mold.

Once all the elements are ready, assemble the flower bouquet on the left-side bottom corner of the card and finish the card by adding a sentiment strip from the Feathery Floral Paper collection.
