Instructions: My card size is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2". Make card base and cover the inside of the card with a piece of the paper collection. Also cut a strip of the same paper 1" wide to go on the front of the card. Cut out the decorative piece from the Ornamental Tags Dies and glue to the fold of the card and then lay the 1inch piece of paper over that and glue it down.
Stamp the card front with the Patchword Daisy Cling Stamp and run the card front and the Patchwork Daisy Border die through the Sizzix machine. Next color the greenery of the stamped image with the Dove Blender pen and ink.
Stamp the flowers and buttons using inks and cut out using the coordinating die. Shape the flowers and then glue the buttons to the centers of them and set aside to dry. Once dry glue to the curved front of the card. Locate a tag and cut out using the coordinating die and use dimensional tape to adhere to card front.
My second project for this week is a shaped card and I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it!  

Products Used
Other Products: White Cardstock, White Ribbon, Grape Jelly Memento Ink, Sap Green Archival Ink, Hot Glue Gun
For more tips on creating with the flower shaping molds, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/FSdPL7nXvQE.
For more tips on creating with the pocket dies, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/uDhKUj9AAMo.
Instructions: Click here to view a larger photo of this project. This card was inspired by Liz Gaze and the video she shared here. My card size is 4 x 6". Fold a piece of 8 1/2 x 11" cardstock in half and tape the tag die so it is resting with cutting blade just over the fold. When cut out this will make the card front and back together. Cut a piece of the paper collection using the smaller tag die and edge with ink. Glue down onto the front of the card.
Cut out the corner pocket die and sponge adhesive onto it and dip into the glitter. Allow to dry then glue to the bottom of the card front.
Stamp the leaves with Olive Green Stazon ink and then cut out using the coordinating die. Using the daubers add color to the leaves then place them into the Leafy Accents Mold and spritz with water. Run through the Vagabond 2 and then turn out to dry.
Stamp the flower petals with Grape Jelly ink and cut out using the coordinating die. Using the daubers, add color to the petals (Sap Green in the centers and Grape Jelly to the outer edges). Place the petals onto the mold, spritz with water and run through the Vagabond 2. Turn the petals out and allow to dry. Once dry, glue two together to form flower and add Prills to the centers. Allow to dry. Once dry, decide on placement of leaves and flowers and glue using the hot glue gun.
Using the Ticket and Tags die cut out small tags from the paper collection and tie ribbon through the holes. Slip the tags down into the corner pocket on the card front and it is ready to go.
