Materials…

• White 20x21cm card
• PinkPetticoat.co.uk pink/purple papers
• Chipboard flower
• Scrap board for stem and leaf
• Lime/purple/pink VersaColor inkpads
• Cuttlebug Swirls embossing folder
• Pink paper string
• Hero Arts Swirl stamp (L1746)

To create…

1 Print, cut and matt the pink/purple papers. Pass through the embossing folder and mount onto the front of the folded base card.

2 Colour the flower with a purple inkpad. Cut a stem and flower from spare chipboard and colour with lime. Stamp swirls onto all these and emboss with sparkly powder.

3 Mount the flower and stem onto the card, overlapping the edges of the background.

4 Finish with a tiny ‘cheer up’ tag and a pink bow.
