Pick out the larger of the label framelits from the Stylish Stems Framelits. Place the Pear Pizzazz rectangle on the Precision Base Plate on top of the Big Shot Platform. Place the label framelits on the left side about 3/4" from left side and 1/2" from bottom. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot.
Without adhering it, place the Pear Pizzazz rectangle with the label cut out of it on top of the largest Wisteria Wonder rectangle so it is centered and the cut out is on the lower left side. Mount sentiment of choice from Special Reason Stamp Set on Block G. Ink it up with the Perfect Plum Ink Pad. Stamp inside the cut out area so it is centered.
When happy with your stamping, adhere the Pear Pizzazz layer to the Wisteria Wonder layer so the sentiment shows through the cut out. Then, adhere to the front of the Pear Pizzazz card.
Pick out both sizes of the label framelits from the Stylish Stems Framelits. Place the small Perfect Plum rectangle on the Precision Base Plate on top of the Big Shot Platform. Place the label framelits on top inside of each other. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot. Keep the label outline and discard the rest.
Place the outline label cut out upside down on one side of a Silicone Craft Sheet. Cut a Stamping Sponge into quarters and clamp the triangle edge of one quarter in a large binder clip. Squeeze a small amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue on one corner of the Silicone Craft Sheet. Dab the sponge into the glue and then lightly onto the back of the outline label cut out. Flip the outline label cut out over and adhere it inside the label opening in the Pear Pizzazz layer.
Mount the large flower image on Block D. Ink it up with the Wisteria Wonder Ink Pad. Do NOT stamp yet. Instead, roll the edges of the stamp around on the Perfect Plum Ink Pad. This is called the "rock & roll" technique and will add some darker color to the edges of your flower. Stamp on the larger white rectangle.

Pick out the large open flower framelit from the Stylish Stems Framelits. Place the detailed flower cut out you just made on a Cutting Pad on the Magnetic Platform.
