Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Blackberry Bliss Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Mossy Meadow Cardstock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" of large purple and red poppies on green stems with watercoloring design from Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper, cut so the poppies are vertical on the horizontal rectangle
- 1-3/4" x 3" from Whisper White Cardstock
- 1-3/4" x 2-1/4" from Rich Razzleberry Cardstock
- 1-3/4" x 2-1/4" from Blackberry Bliss Cardstock
- 1" x 1-1/2" from Mossy Meadow Cardstock
- 3/4" x 1" from Basic Black Cardstock
Adhere the Peaceful Poppies Designer Paper piece to the large Mossy Meadow rectangle and then to the front of the Blackberry Bliss card.
Cut a 4-3/4" piece of Whisper White 5/8" Flax Ribbon so it has sharp angles on either end.
Put a 3" strip of Tear & Tape Adhesive horizontally across the front of the card about 1-1/4" up from the bottom edge and about 1" from the left edge. Remove the protective backing. Adhere the strip of ribbon to the adhesive horizontally so the left point of the ribbon just touches the left edge of the Mossy Meadow layer.
Mount the "With Deepest Sympathy," "Thank You," "Thinking of you with all my heart," or "Happy Birthday" sentiment from the Peaceful Moments Set on Block C. Ink it up with the Blackberry Bliss Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the white rectangle.
Pick out the smaller label die with rounded ends from the Painted Labels Dies. Put it on top of the stamped sentiment on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool so the sentiment is centered. Run through the tool.
Adhere the sentiment cut out to the front of the card so it is centered top to bottom over the ribbon and is about 3/4" from the left side.
Pick out one of the sets of two small leaves with a short stem dies from the Poppy Moments Dies. Put it on top of the small Mossy Meadow rectangle on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen or Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the leaves on a stem cut out to the front of the card so the leaves are pointing down and they overlap the lower right side of the sentiment cut out.
Pick out the small, open flower die from the Poppy Moments Dies. Put it on top of the Rich Razzleberry rectangle on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool.
Pick out the small, detailed flower die from the Poppy Moments Dies. Put it on top of the Blackberry Bliss rectangle on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen or Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the Blackberry Bliss detailed flower cut out over the top of the solid Rich Razzleberry flower cut out.
Pick out the small, half, spiky flower center die from the Poppy Moments Dies. Put it on top of the Basic Black rectangle on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen or Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Mini Glue Dots to adhere the small, half, spiky center to the center of the flower.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the layered flower cut out to the front of the card so it overlaps the top right side of the sentiment cut out and the top of the stem from the leaves cut out. The flower should be pointing towards the upper right corner of the card.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up a small, clear epoxy droplet from the sheet of Frosted & Clear Epoxy Droplets making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the card front in the angle formed between the base of the flower and the base of one of the leaves on top of the sentiment cut out.
