Flowers Of Beauty Leaf Framed For You

Supplies needed:

Project Recipe:

1. Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
   - card from Lost Lagoon Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
   - 4" x 5-1/4" of faint diagonal lines on beige background design from Country Lace 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper
   - 3-3/4" x 8" from Lost Lagoon Cardstock
   - 1-3/4" x 2-1/2" from Petal Pink Cardstock
   - 1-3/4" x 5-1/2" from Basic Beige Cardstock

2. Insert the rectangle of Country Lace Designer Paper into the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder. Use the line printed on the front flap of the folder to make sure it is lined up straight. Place the folder with the cardstock inside on the platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine and run through the machine.

3. Adhere the dry embossed Country Lace Designer Paper rectangle to the front of the Lost Lagoon card.

4. Pick out the detailed, large group of leaves die from the Flowers Of Beauty Dies. Put it on top of one end of the long Lost Lagoon rectangle on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine. Repeat 3 more times until you have 4 leaf cut outs. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick as needed to remove the pieces.

5. WITHOUT ADHERING, lay the four leaf cut outs on the front of the card as shown so they all overlap in the center. When happy with the arrangement, put a small strip of Tear & Tape Adhesive across the center of the leaf cut outs to hold them together. Carefully remove the cut outs as one from the card front.

6. Put a couple more small strips of Tear & Tape Adhesive across the center of the card front. Remove the protective backings. Adhere the layered leaf cut outs to the front of the card.

7. Pick out the slightly smaller, open, smooth-edged rectangle with notched corners die from the Unbounded Love Dies. Put it on top of the Petal Pink rectangle on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine.

8. Add Stampin' Seal to the back of the rectangle label cut out. Remove the protective backing from the center of the layered leaves on the front of the card. Adhere the rectangle label cut out to the front of the card in the center of the layered leaves as shown.

9. As you are ready to stamp using the Unbounded Love Set or Flowers Of Beauty Set, place the cardstock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.

10. Mount the "just for you" sentiment from the Unbounded Love Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Lost Lagoon Ink Pad. Stamp the sentiment on one end of the long, horizontal, Basic Beige strip leaving room to cut it out.

11. Pick out the slightly larger, open, stitched-edge circle die from the Unbounded Love Dies. Put it on top of the Basic Beige strip on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the sentiment. Run through the machine.

12. Adhere the sentiment circle cut out to the front of the card so it is centered over the rectangle label cut out as shown.

13. Mount the small, more detailed flower image from the Flowers Of Beauty Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Petal Pink Ink Pad. Stamp it three times on the long, horizontal, Basic Beige strip leaving room to cut it out each time. Remember to re-ink the stamp each time.

14. Mount the small, more solid flower image from the Flowers Of Beauty Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Petal Pink Ink Pad. Stamp off on Grid Paper. Without re-inking stamp it inside one of the previously stamped flowers on the Basic Beige strip. Repeat with the other two flowers, remembering to re-ink and stamp off the stamp each time.

15. Pick out the open, small flower die from the Flowers Of Beauty Dies. Put it on top of one of the stamped flowers on the Basic Beige strip on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine. Repeat with the other two flowers.

16. Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the flower cut outs to the front of the card as shown.

17. Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 3 small jewels from a sheet of Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere them to the centers of the flowers on the card front.

18. Cut a 10" piece of the Petal Pink ribbon included in the Petal Pink & White 1/4" Diagonal Trim Combo Pack.

19. Tie a small bow in the center of the ribbon. Trim the ends.

20. Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the ribbon bow to the front of the card as shown so it is centered at the bottom of the sentiment circle cut out.
