Also cut a printed backing for the doily from the designer paper collection. Assemble all the die cuts as shown by adding dimensions using foam dots.

For Blue Asters, Stamp a couple of petals from Wild Aster Cling Stamp Set using French Ultramarine Archival Ink and cut them using its coordinating die. Color the petals using the same ink and shape them using golf groove tools. Create 3 medium-sized Asters. Complete the flowers by adding the prills in the centers.
