Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- 2" x 4" from Old Olive Cardstock
- 2" x 3-3/4" of rose gold dots on white background design from Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper
- 3-1/4" square of Old Olive Cardstock
- 3-1/4" square of Whisper White Cardstock
- rose and bud with leaves cut from rose gold and gold flowers and leaves on white background design from Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper
Unlock the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. Insert the strip of dotted Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Paper into the punch as far as it will go. Punch. Leave the punch unlocked.
Insert the strip of Old Olive Cardstock into the punch as far as it will go. Punch.
Cut a 14" piece of the Calypso Coral 3/8" Ribbon from the Shimmer Ribbon Pack.
Lay the designer paper tag on top of the Old Olive tag. Slide one end of the Calypso Coral ribbon through the slots in the top of the tags and even out the ribbon on either side.
Cut a 10" piece of Gold 1/8" Ribbon. Tie it around the Calypso Coral ribbon right above the top of the tags. Tie a bow. Trim the ends.
Mount the "You are amazing" sentiment from the All Things Thanks Set on Block C. Ink it up with the Calypso Coral Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the white square.
Unlock the 1-3/4" Circle Punch. Holding the punch upside down so you can see the punching area, slide the stamped sentiment into the punch. Center the sentiment in the punching area. Punch.
Unlock the 2" Circle Punch. Slide the Old Olive square into the punch. Punch.
Adhere the sentiment circle to the center of the Old Olive circle.
Use some Tear & Tape Adhesive on the back of the Old Olive circle to adhere the matted circles to the left edge of the tags so that the circles hang off the left side a bit and are about 3/4" from the bottom of the designer paper tag.
If you haven't already done so, carefully cut out a large rose flower and a bud and some leaves from the Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper using Paper Snips.
Place the cut out flower and bud and leaves on the Grid Paper to protect your work surface since the Stampin' Blends Markers will bleed through the paper.
Start coloring with the Stampin' Blends Markers. The markers have a brush tip for coloring in larger areas and a fine tip for coloring in smaller areas. Use the light color first and add highlights with the dark color. Blend the colors by going over everything again with the light color. Use a clean tissue or paper towel to wipe off excess ink that puddles on the foil portions.
Use Calypso Coral Markers on the flower and bud.
Use Old Olive Markers on the stems and leaves.
Use small pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive on the back of the bud and leaves to adhere them to the tag so they are on the top of the matted circles. It's okay if they hang over the edge of the tags a bit.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the rose to the tag so it is on the top right of the matted circles. It's okay if it hangs over the edge of the tags a bit.
