As you are ready to stamp using the Delightful Day Set, place the cardstock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp. Put a piece of Grid Paper on top of the mat to protect it from ink.
Mount the grouping of dots image from the Delightful Day Photopolymer Set on Block A. Ink it up with the Gorgeous Grape Ink Pad. Stamp it repeatedly down both short sides of the 2-3/4" x 4-1/2" piece of Gorgeous Grape Cardstock. Remember to re-ink the stamp each time. Let some of the images go off the edges.
Adhere the piece of stamped Gorgeous Grape Cardstock to the front of the Highland Heather card.
Adhere the square of 2019-2021 In Color Designer Paper to the front of the card so it is centered over the stamped Gorgeous Grape rectangle. Make sure the words are right side up.
Unlock the Banner Triple Punch. Slide one short edge of the Highland Heather strip into the punch as far as it will go. Punch. Repeat with the other side.
Use Paper Snips to cut the punched Highland Heather strip in half.
Adhere the two pieces of the punched Highland Heather strip to the card front so the notches are just past the left and right edges of the designer paper square in the center.
Mount the birthday sentiment from the Delightful Day Photopolymer Set on Block C. Ink it up with the Highland Heather Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the white strip near one end.
Unlock the 2" Circle Punch. Hold the punch upside down so you can see the punching area. Get the sentiment image centered in the punching area. Punch.
Use the Purple Posy Marker to color in the pieces of confetti around the stamped sentiment.
Unlock the 2-1/4" Circle Punch. Slide the remaining Gorgeous Grape piece into the punch and punch.
Adhere the colored sentiment image circle to the center of the Gorgeous Grape circle.
Adhere the matted sentiment circles to the center of the card front.
Cut a 4” piece of Purple 3/8" Tricolor Ribbon.
Tie a half knot in the center of the ribbon. Trim the ends.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the ribbon knot to the card front at an angle along the bottom right side of the matted sentiment image circles.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 3 round Highland Heather sequins from a sheet of Gingham Gala Adhesive-Backed Sequins making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere them to the card front as shown.
