Instructions: My card is 5 1/2" X 5 1/2". Make card base and cover with a piece of the paper collection. Use the stencil and apply the Gel and set aside to dry. Stamp and cut the flower petals from watercolor paper. Use the Dusty Concord to color the petals. Spray the petals with a bit of water and as it begins to dry use the flower shaping tools to shape the petals then glue them together make the flower. Set this aside to dry. When dry add the stickles to the edges to give a bit of sparkle and texture to the flowers. The leaves are also cut out of watercolor paper and colored with New Sprout and Bamboo Leaves Memento Ink. Shape them and set aside to dry.
I took white 6mm pearls and used the sticky strip on a sticky note to hold them in place while I applied the purple marker all over them. Next I cut out the the corner pieces and applied them with Designer Dries Clear Glue then I glued the half pearls where I wanted them. I picked out one of the tags from the paper collection, die cut it using the Luggage and Tags Die and used dimensional tape to apply to the front of my card. Decide where you like the vines, flowers and leaves and glue them down. The card is now finished.
