Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Pineapple Punch Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Whisper White Cardstock
- 2 strips each 1-1/4" x 5-1/8" of tiny white dots on Lovely Lipstick background from 2018-2020 In Color 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper
- 1-1/4" x 5-1/8" of tiny white dots on Pineapple Punch background from 2018-2020 6" x 6" In Color Designer Series Paper
- 2-1/8" x 4-1/2" of Pineapple Punch Cardstock
- 2" x 4-3/8" of Whisper White Cardstock
Adhere the strips of 2018-2020 In Color Designer Series Paper to the large white rectangle so they are evenly spaced with a small amount of white showing around each strip on all 4 sides and the Pineapple Punch strip is in the center.
Adhere the designer paper/white layer to the front of the Pineapple Punch card.
Use a red Sharpie Marker to color one of the large Clear Rhinestone Basic Jewels red. Set it aside to let it dry.
Tip: You can also buy our new Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels and not have to color one red with a Sharpie!
Mount the "Sending Well Wishes Your Way" sentiment from the Dandelion Wishes Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Pineapple Punch Ink Pad. Stamp it on the bottom of the long, white rectangle so it is about 1/4" from the bottom.
Use scissors to carefully cut apart the single dandelion with lots of seeds blowing off of it image from the Dandelion Wishes Set apart so that the seeds blowing off are separate from the main image.
Tip: If you have our old Craft & Rubber Scissors still, they are excellent for cutting rubber. Otherwise, just use any pair of sharp scissors.
Tip: If you aren't comfortable cutting your stamps apart, you can use small pieces of Scotch tape to mask off areas of a stamp that you don't want to ink up. Just put the tape pieces directly onto the stamp where you don't want ink. Ink the stamp up as normal by tapping it on an open ink pad. Remember to remove the tape pieces before stamping on your cardstock though or you will get nasty blobs of color.
Mount the cut apart dandelion image from the Dandelion Wishes Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Pineapple Punch Ink Pad. Stamp it on the upper part of the long, white rectangle so the stem is pointing down and the top of the dandelion is about 1/4" from the top.
Tip: If you didn't cut your dandelion image apart, you may need to mount the image on Block E.
Mount the stamped white rectangle to the Pineapple Punch rectangle.
Cut a 3" piece of Lovely Lipstick 1/8" Grosgrain Ribbon.
Lay the ribbon across the yellow and stamped white cardstock layers so the ribbon covers the bottom of the dandelion stem. Flip the cardstock over and fold the ends of the ribbon over. Adhere the ends of the ribbon in place with pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Remove the protective backing from the Tear & Tape strips and add more SNAIL to the back of the cardstock. Adhere it to the front of the card so it is centered.
Cut a 3" piece of Lovely Lipstick 1/8" Grosgrain Ribbon.
Slide one end of the ribbon under the ribbon on the card front under the bottom of the stem and tie it in place using a half knot. Trim the ends.
Carefully peel up the red colored rhinestone from a sheet of Rhinestone Basic Jewels making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the center of the dandelion image.
