Instructions: Cut a piece of white cardstock to 8 1/2 x 5 1/2" size, score and fold at 4 1/4". Cut a piece of background paper from the Burst of Spring paper collection to 5 1/4 x 4" size. Use small diamond from HCD1-7228 Lacy Diamond Die to diecut an opening into center of paper panel. Now use the panel as template to diecut coordinating opening from the center of card base. Stamp a bit of the right facing pansy spray from HCPC-3864 Delicate Pansy Spray Cling Stamp Set in Vivid Chartreuse ink onto top left and bottom right edge of paper panel. Sponge edges of paper panel with Magenta Hue ink and attach onto card base. Use from the same diamond die set to diecut a small lattice diamond from white cardstock. Lightly sponge over diamond with Magenta Hue ink and attach through opening onto the inside of card.
Stamp the pansy frame from HCPC-3865 Petite Pansy Frame Cling Stamp Set, small pansy x2 and medium pansy x1 from HCPC-3862 Cheery Pansy Cling Stamp Set in Magenta Hue ink onto white cardstock and diecut with coordinating dies.
Use the Stack and Store daubers to color the images. Sponge the innermost part of pansy petals with Buttercup ink, then next to it a shade of Magenta Hue, Cactus Flower, and lastly add a soft touch of Majestic Violet along the edges. For all the leaves, use a touch of Sunflower on a part of petal, then add Vivid Chartreuse over entire petal and lastly a touch of the Emerald Green on the centers. For the pansy frame, use Garden Patina ink.
Use the stylus from the HCST1-401 Deluxe Flower shaping kit to shape the pansies and leaves on the frame. Place the pansy petals into the HCFB1-473 3D Pansy Shaping Mold, lightly mist with water and send through die cutting machine. Dab some Transparent stamp paint onto each one of the pansy petals and then let dry. Then assemble the petals into pansy form, using hot glue. Use dimensional adhesive to attach pansy frame onto card. Attach pansies with hot glue. Cut a message from the paper collection, sponge edges with Magenta Hue ink and attach onto card as pictured.
Use the Dries Clear to add Art Institute Bananan glitter over pansy petals, leaves and rest of card as desired. Use the same glue to add some 'You Had me at Yellow' prills onto the pansy centers.
