Instructions

On the long side score the thick card at 4 1/8" and fold and burnish to make the card base.

Adhere the gingham dsp to the card front and the 1/4" strip to the inside right hand side.

Stamp the flower a few times on post it notes and fussy cut them out to use as masks, I made 3.

I stamped the detailed part of the floral image first, full strength, then filled in the flower but stamped off once to make it lighter.  Cover the first completed flower and then repeat the process for the 2nd, then cover with the mask and stamp the third.  

While all 3 masks are in place, stamp the leaves and then remove the masks.

Add this piece to the card front.

Stamp a sentiment in pool party ink and then layer up on the pool party scrap, add to the card front using dimensionals. 

Sprinkle a few gems and the card is complete.
