Cut cardstock and shimmer vellum pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Blackberry Bliss Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Very Vanilla Cardstock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" from Very Vanilla Cardstock

- 3/4" x4-1/4" from Blackberry Bliss Cardstock
- 1/2" x 4-1/4" from Very Vanilla Cardstock
Mount the small group of flowers image from the Beauty Of Tomorrow Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Blackberry Bliss Ink Pad. Stamp it randomly all over the 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" vanilla rectangle. Remember to re-ink the stamp each time. Rotate the direction of the stamp every so often. Let some of the images go off the cardstock.
Tip: Make sure you have a piece of Grid Paper on your work surface to protect it from ink.
Adhere the stamped vanilla rectangle to the center of the larger vanilla rectangle.
Unlock the Lovely Labels Pick A Punch. Slide one short edge of the thin Blackberry Bliss strip into the left side of the punch (the side of the punch with the more rounded top) as far as it will go. Punch.

Mount the "some people are just likable" sentiment from the Beauty Of Tomorrow Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Blackberry Bliss Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the punched vanilla strip closer to the punched end with the punched end on the left side.
Adhere the punched and stamped vanilla strip to the center of the punched Blackberrry Bliss strip.
Lay the piece of Gold Shimmer Vellum in the center of the stamped and matted large vanilla rectangles without adhering it.
Adhere the matted sentiment strip to the Gold Shimmer Vellum rectangle so it is about 1" from the bottom and punched left edge touches the edge of the stamped vanilla rectangle. Don't worry about the right end of the sentiment strip yet.
Carefully remove one of the largest bunches of dark purple flowers and brown stems from the Blackberry Beauty Ephemera Pack. Adhere it to the shimmer vellum so the top and right edges almost touch the top and right edges of the vellum and the bottom of the stem tucks under the top of the matted sentiment strip..
Remove the shimmer vellum rectangle with ephemera punch out and sentiment strip attached from the matted vanilla rectangle. Flip it upside down. Put Stampin' Seal on the back of the shimmer vellum rectangle where it will be hidden by the sentiment strip and ephemera punch out.
Adhere the shimmer vellum rectangle back to the center of the matted vanilla rectangles. Use Paper Snips Scissors to trim off excess cardstock from the sentiment strip on the right edge.
Adhere the matted vanilla rectangle to the front of the Blackberry Bliss card.
Cut a 3-1/2" piece of the 3/8" Diamond Weave Ribbon.
Tie a half knot in the center of the ribbon. Trim the ends.
Adhere the ribbon knot to the front of the card using a Mini Glue Dot so it is centered over the right end of the sentiment strip.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up a large Rich Razzleberry sequin from the sheet of Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the upper left corner of the shimmer vellum.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up a small gem from the sheet of Gilded Gems making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the center of the sequin.
