Project Recipe:

1. Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
   - card from Pretty Peacock Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
   - 3-3/4" x 5" from Bubble Bath Cardstock
   - 3-1/2"x 4-3/4" of small white and light pink hearts scattered on dark blue green background design from Delightfully Eclectic 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper, cut so the hearts are vertical on the vertical rectangle
   - 2-3/4" x 3-1/4" of small pink flowers with purple centers and green leaves on white background design from Delightfully Eclectic 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper
   - 1-3/4" x 3-1/4" from Basic White Cardstock
   - 1" x 2-1/2" from Bubble Bath Cardstock

2. Use the Bubble Bath Stampin' Write Marker to color over any pink hearts to make them a little darker and to color in some random white hearts on the heart scattered Delightfully Eclectic Designer Paper rectangle.

3. Unlock the 2-3/8" Circle Punch. Hold the punch upside down so you can see the punching area. Slide the floral Delightfully Eclectic Designer Paper strip into the punch and get it centered. Punch.

4. Adhere the designer paper circle punch out to the right side of the colored hearts designer paper rectangle so it is about 1/2" from the bottom and hangs over the right edge by about 3/8". Use Paper Snips Scissors to cut off excess circle on the right edge.

5. Adhere the piece of colored hearts designer paper with partial circle attached to the center of the 3-3/4" x 5" Bubble Bath rectangle and then to the center of the Pretty Peacock card front.

6. As you are ready to stamp using the Ringed With Nature Set or Sweet Songbirds Set, place the cardstock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.

7. Mount the "congratulations" sentiment from the Sweet Songbirds Set on Block G. Ink it up with the Pretty Peacock Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the thin Bubble Bath strip so it is slightly closer to the left edge.

8. Pick out the shorter, skinny label die from the Sending Dies. Put it on top of the stamped sentiment on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the sentiment top to bottom and the left side of the sentiment is about 1/4" from the left edge. Run through the machine.

9. Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Fine-Tip Glue Pen to adhere the sentiment label cut out to the front of the card so it overlaps the left edge of the circle punch out about 1-1/2" from the bottom of the card and the left edge is about 1/2" from the left side of the card.

10. Mount the bottom of the house image from the Ringed With Nature Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Fresh Freesia Ink Pad. Stamp it on one side of the horizontal white strip.

11. Mount the roof of the house image from the Ringed With Nature Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Pretty Peacock Ink Pad. Stamp it on the other side of the horizontal white strip.

12. Use Paper Snips Scissors to cut out the house and roof images by hand.

13. Adhere the house cut out to the center of the partial floral designer paper circle punch out on the card front so it is about 1-1/4" from the bottom of the card.

14. Use Stampin' Dimensionals and bits cut from the edge of the dimensionals sheet to adhere the roof cut out to the front of the card so it is centered over the top of the house cut out.

15. Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 1 small Pretty Peacock sequin from the sheet of Adhesive-Backed Sequins Trio making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the card front as shown on the left edge of the sentiment label cut out.
