Cut cardstock and vellum designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Soft Sea Foam Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Whisper White Cardstock
- 2-1/2" x 5-1/4" of Soft Sea Foam vellum from So Very Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper
- 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" from Whisper White Cardstock
As you are ready to stamp using the Tags In Bloom Photopolymer Set, place the cardstock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.
Mount the large outlined tag with blooms and leaves at the top image from the Tags In Bloom Set on Block E. Ink it up with the Memento Pad. Stamp it on the white rectangle so the bottom of the tag is about 1/2" from the bottom edge and the tag is centered side to side.
Mount the large solid flower and bud image from the Tags In Bloom Set on Block B at an angle so it fits. Ink it up with the Highland Heather Ink Pad. Stamp it inside the previously stamped large flower and bud at the top of the tag.
Mount the solid leaves and bud bracket image from the Tags In Bloom Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Soft Sea Foam Ink Pad. Stamp it inside the previously stamped leaves and bud bracket at the top of the tag (the leaves on the right of the big flower).
Mount the set of two solid leaves image from the Tags In Bloom Set on Block A. Ink it up with the Soft Sea Foam Ink Pad. Stamp it inside the previously stamped leaves at the top of the tag (the leaves on the left of the big flower).
Mount the half-circle flower center image from the Tags In Bloom Set on Block A. Ink it up with the Soft Sea Foam Ink Pad. Stamp it inside the previously stamped big flower at the top of the tag.
Mount the larger, stitched tag image from the Tags In Bloom Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Soft Sea Foam Ink Pad. Stamp it on one end of the white strip.
Mount the sentiment of choice on an appropriately sized block. Ink it up with the Highland Heather Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the previously stamped stitched tag outline.
Unlock the Label Me Lovely Punch. Hold the punch upside down so you can see the punching area. Slide the stamped label into the punch and get it centered in the punching area. Punch. Leave the punch unlocked.
Slide the strip of Soft Sea Foam So Very Vellum Specialty Designer Paper into the unlocked Label Me Lovely Punch. Punch two times so you have two punch outs from the vellum.
Put a little bit of SNAIL on the back, right, straight edge of one of the vellum punch outs. Adhere it to the left side of the stamped white layer so it overlaps the left edge of the stamped tag with flowers a bit.
Put a little bit of SNAIL on the back, left, straight edge of the other vellum punch out. Adhere it to the right side of the stamped white layer so it overlaps the right edge of the stamped tag with flowers a bit.
Use Paper Snips to trim off excess vellum on the sides of the white cardstock.
Adhere the white cardstock with vellum attached to the front of the Soft Sea Foam card.
Adhere the punched out stamped white tag to the center of the floral tag on the card front.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up a purple flower from a sheet of Frosted Flower Embellishments making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the card front so it overlaps the lower right corner of the white tag punch out.
