Cut Berry Burst card stock 4.25 x 11, score at 5.5 and fold to make a top fold A2 card base
Cut (2) Whisper White regular card stock 4 x 5.25. Attach one to the inside of the card with Snail.
Run the second Whisper White piece through the Big Shot using the Tufted Dynamic Impressions Folder. The sandwich for that is:
1. Basic Platform
2. Folder with card stock inside
3. Clear Plate
Attach this piece to the front of the card with Snail adhesive
Cut Whisper White Regular .75 x 3 strip. Punch each end using the Detailed Trio punch. To do this look at the picture to the right. Slip the long edge into the punch butting it up against the guide on one side, push it all the way in and punch, flip it around and do the same with the other end and you get a cute opposite angled punch.
Cut Berry Burst card stock 7/8 x 3 1/8, Attach, the punched whisper white tag to this with Snail.
Stamp the sentiment with Mellow Moss ink pad, set aside for now.
Use the leaf branch die from Botanical Tags dies to cut two from Mellow Moss card stock. Use the Zig Two Way Glue Pen to put a dab of glue on the leaves and attach to the card front as shown.
Attach the sentiment tag over the center with Stampin' Dimensionals
Cut a piece of Whisper White regular card stock 2" wide. Use the flower die from Botanical Tags dies placing it centered from side to side and as close to one end as possible. Cut it out.
Next you can do one of two things. You can just use your scissors and carefully cut around the edge of the flower and leaves that are connected and detach the flower and leaf section
OR
You can use the additional die inclued to separate the flower and leafs from the rest of the card stock.
Personally, I had better luck just trimming it out with scissors but it's up to you how you do it.
Next, I used sponge daubers to add color the the flower and leaves using the Berry Burst and Mossy Meadow ink pads. I attached the flower to the card front using the Zig Two WAy Squeese glue pen.
