Instructions
Step 1: Start by stenciling a piece of Stark White Cardstock with the Bubble Wrap Stencil and Piggy Back ink on the MAKE ART STAY-tion. Then trim it down an 1/8” on all sides.
Step 2: Using the Doodles Floral Stamp, stamp the floral images in all the colors of ink except Tropical Tango. (That is used for the senitment.)
Step 3: Then get the outline stamps from the stamp set and use the Jet Black Archival Ink and stamp the outlines on the floral images.
Step 4: On white cardstock stamp the sentiment from the Doodle Florals in Tropical Tango and trim it down.
Step 5: Trim the floral panel in to 3 pieces measuring 3 ½ x 1 ¼ for the top and bottom pieces. Trim the excess from the top of the top piece and the bottom of the bottom piece. You want the flowers to match up in the center. For the center piece, trim it to 3 ½ x 1 ¾. Frame each piece with Black Cardstock. Adhere the stenciled background to an A2 size card base. Pop the floral panel up on foam tape for dimension. Also add foam tape behind the sentiment. Finish with Prickly Pear Liquid Pearls.
