Instructions: The floral patterned paper is the background. Cut white cardstock to 10x10", and 9.5x9.5". Distress the edges of the white cardstock. Mat your photo in white cardstock twice and distress the edges of those layers. Take the 9.5x9.5" piece of white cardstock and add color around where the matted photo will be in the middle using the Close To My Heart, Flaxen ink and a blending tool. Using the Heidi Swapp Shimmer Misters add splatters of color along the middle of the layout. Let dry. Using 3D foam tape adhere the two large white cardstock layers to the floral background.
Cut a piece of the coral patterned paper that is 0.75x9" and tear each end. Cut a piece of the yellow patterned paper that is 1.5x8". Adhere these layers up the middle of the layout. Adhere the matted photo to the middle of the layout using 3D foam squares. Find and die cut out the pink mini tag and adhere above the matted photo using crafty foam tape. Add the ivory burlap string bow. Find and cut out the small light blue journal block and split it in half. Adhere to the top and bottom of the matted photo.
Stamp and die cut 4 sets of the Small Sweet Peony images using Smoothie ink. Using Blush ink and daubers add color to the middles of all of the flowers. Using liquid adhesive add Crystal Clear Glitter to the tips of all of the petals. Stamp and die cut 2 sets of the Small Sweet Peony images using Early Espresso ink. Using Baroque Burgundy ink and daubers, add color to all of the flowers. Flip these flowers over and mist the backs with the Raspberry Shimmer Mister. Let dry. Shape all of the flowers using the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit.
Assemble the flowers, creating 4 larger and 2 smaller layered flowers. Add gems to the middle of all of the coral/pink flowers. Add gems and stamen to the middles of the burgundy flowers. Stamp and die cut a few of the smaller leaves from the Large Sweet Peony set, and lots of the Small Sweet Peony leaves using Early Espresso ink. Add color to the leaves using Seaweed and Green Apple ink. Shape the leaves.
Create ivory burlap string loops (3) to add on either side of the matted photo with the burgundy flowers. Add the other large and small coral/pink flowers on either side of the matted photo. I always add the leaves after I have attached my flowers. Find and die cut out the "You Are My Everything" ticket adhere it to the top right hand corner of the layout using 3D foam tape. Then add a small coral/pink flower and leaves to the end.
