Cut cardstock and copy paper pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Island Indigo Cardstock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" from Whisper White Cardstock
- 3" square from Melon Mambo Cardstock
- 2-1/2" square from Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock
- scrap of Island Indigo Cardstock at least 1-1/2" wide
- scrap of Whisper White Cardstock at least 1-3/4" wide
- 1-1/2" x 6" from copy paper
Lay the large rectangle of Whisper White Cardstock on Grid Paper and get it lined up straight. Place the strip of copy paper across the center horizontally and get it lined up straight. Use Post-It Notes to hold the copy paper in place by placing them across the ends of the copy paper off the cardstock.
Mount the large double circle image from the Eastern Beauty Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Island Indigo Ink Pad and stamp it randomly around the white cardstock. Let it go off the sides and over the mask at times. Remember to re-ink the stamp each time.
Mount the medium-sized, beaded circle image from the Eastern Beauty Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Lemon Lime Twist Ink Pad and stamp it randomly around the white cardstock. Let it go off the sides and over the mask at times and let it overlap the Island Indigo circles at times. Remember to re-ink the stamp each time.
Mount the small dotted circle image from the Eastern Beauty Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Melon Mambo Ink Pad and stamp it randomly around the white cardstock. Let it go off the sides and over the mask at times and let it overlap the Island Indigo and Lemon Lime Twist circles at times. Remember to re-ink the stamp each time.
Remove the copy paper mask. If you are making multiples of this card, you can use the mask again.
Place the ruler along the top of the masked area on the stamped white cardstock. Use the brush tip of the Lemon Lime Twist Marker to draw a line across the cardstock. Move the ruler down to the bottom of the masked off area and draw another line with the marker.
Pick out the large circle of flower petals thinlit and the open circle thinlit that cuts out a circle of triangles from the Eastern Medallion Thinlits. Place the square of Melon Mambo Cardstock on the Precision Plate on top of your Platform on your Big Shot. Place the flower petals circle thinlit on top in the center. Place the circle thinlit inside the center of the other thinlit and get it centered. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot a couple of times. Use the Die Brush to remove the card stock if needed.
Use Paper Snips to carefully cut the flower image free from the cardstock by snipping the cardstock at the base of each valley between the flower petals.
Without adhering it, lay the flower medallion in the center of the stamped white cardstock so it is centered in the white masked off area. Make sure that valleys between two flower petals are centered vertically between the marker lines on either side of the medallion.
Mount the triangular spray of dots image from the Eastern Beauty Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Lemon Lime Twist Ink Pad and stamp it on the white cardstock in the space between two flower petals on the medallion so it is centered vertically between the two lines drawn with the marker. Re-ink the stamp and repeat on the other side of the medallion.
Remove the flower medallion from the center of the stamped white cardstock and set it aside for now.
Adhere the stamped white rectangle to the Island Indigo rectangle and then to the front of the Lemon Lime Twist card.
Unlock the 2" Circle Punch. Slide the square of Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock into the punch and punch.
Put a thin line of Fine-Tip Glue Pen on the back of the Melon Mambo flower medallion along the outside circle. Adhere the Lemon Lime Twist circle to the back of the Melon Mambo flower medallion.
Use SNAIL to adhere the Melon Mambo/Lemon Lime Twist flower medallion to the front of the card so it is centered between the marker lines and the flower petals on either side frame the stamped spray of dots images.
Unlock the 1-1/4" Circle Punch. Slide the scrap of Island Indigo Cardstock into the punch and punch.

Unlock the 1" Circle Punch. Hold the punch upside down so you can see the punching area. Slide the stamped sentiment into the punch and get it centered in the punching area. Punch.
