Instructions: My card is 5 x 7". Make card base and cover with a piece of the paper collection.

Using blue cardstock cut out a Hand Stitched frame and then cut a white piece of cardstock to fit inside the frame. Run this piece of white cardstock through the Sizzix using the embossing folder. Glue this white cardstock behind the frame. Stamp the sentiment onto a white piece of cardstock using Danube Blue ink and mat this onto a piece of blue cardstock. Use dimensional tape to adhere to the frame piece and then add dimensional tape to the frame piece and adhere it to the card front.

Using Olive Green ink stamp the leaves and color using Bamboo Leaves ink. Cut out with coordinating die and the place inside the mold and run that through the die cutting machine. Lay the leaves aside to dry. Stamp flower petals using Danube Blue, Majestic Violet and Vibrant Fuchisa inks and use coordinating dies to cut out. Shape the flower petals using the Deluxe Flower Shaping kit and set aside to dry. Add Prills to the centers of the flowers and set aside to dry. Once all the elements are dry, decide on placement and glue them down.
