To create…

1 Take a large retro flower, a medium circle, a large daisy, a 1″ square and a 2″ square from your chipboard shapes. Cut two of the petals from the large daisy shape to create the leaves.

2 Use the stamps, acrylic block and a StazOn inkpad to decorate the chipboard pieces as shown.

3 Cut a rectangle from a piece of white metallic cardstock to measure 6.25×3″. Ink the edge with the lilac ink from the Primary Elements chalk ink set.

4 Fix the flower and squares onto the card using 3D foam pads to create dimension. Use a fine black felt-tip pen to draw in the stem. Attach the leaves and draw a dot-dash pattern around each shape to highlight.

5 Matt onto a piece of Pomegranate cardstock, trim to create a narrow border and add a dot-dash effect using a black pen. Matt again onto white metallic cardstock and fix to the card as shown.

6 Crease-fold a piece of lilac cardstock to create a card blank and assemble the card as shown. Decorate with Hero Arts clear gemstones.
