Instructions:
You can watch this video to learn how to do the different shaping techniques on the Dogwood flowers:   https://youtu.be/gI8RqHAt3vE

My card size is 6 X 6.  Make card base and then cover with one of the card fronts included in the paper pack.  These card fronts literally make such quick work of your cards and I’m sure you will be in love them as I am.  I added some glitter to some of the swirls on the paper and laid the card aside.  Next I stamped, embossed, cut out and colored the flower petals, centers  and leaves.  The leaves are cut out of one of the pretty papers in the paper pack so that everything matches.  The prills were just a shade lighter than I actually wanted so I poured some out onto the Bamboo Leaves ink pad and rolled them around with my finger to add a little more color.  I dampened the back of the flower petals and shaped them using the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit.  I added a drop of glue in the center and added the prills then set them aside to dry.  Next I shaped the leaves a bit then decided where I wanted everything to be and glued down the flowers and leaves.  Next I cut out a sentiment from the paper pack and edged it with Bamboo Leaves Ink then popped up using the dimensional tape.

You and your flowers! These are so real looking and absolutely beautiful. Love how you've made the paper work for you, too. I cast my vote the other day and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you, Glenda. Good luck!

Glenda, these dogwoods are so lifelike! You even got the little speckles on the petals! I'm in awe! You are such an artist when it comes to flower shaping!

Hi Glenda,
Another beautiful card! I love the hint of red on the flowers - it really adds depth. You always amaze me with your talents!

I already voted and wish you the best. They'd be crazy not to keep you on the Design Team. You have your own amazing style and create beautiful cards.

Happy Friday!!

Hugs,
Kay
