Instructions:
The ready side-fold card measures 8" by 5 1/2". To prepare the card base, cut a smooth white cardstock measuring 8" by 11" and score at 5 1/2" on the 11" side and crease well.
Choose the pattern paper from the designer paper collection and cut it to 7 1/2" X 5". Layer it on teal color cardstock making a border of 1/16" on all sides and then finally layer it on the ready card base.
Cut a white lacy frame using Elegant Swirl Gateway Die on white cardstock and the Luxe Gold cardstock. Glue the gold die cut gateway behind the white one creating the shadow. Cut, window frame in gold and glue it as shown. Cut the center window from the pattern paper using the coordinating die from the same set and glue it.
Next, stamp all the images from Rustic Sunflower Can & Freezer stamp set and Rustic Sunflower Bucket Stamp Set using black archival ink and paint them using Zig Markers. Once done with all the coloring, cut the images using the coordinating die sets.
For Sunflowers, stamp multiple images of flower petals using Sunflower Archival ink and cut these using the coordinating dies. Paint the flower petals using Sunflower ink and Orange Tangelo Archival inks and shape them using a Deluxe flower shaping kit. Prepare 2 large and 4 medium-sized flowers. Prick the holes in the center and secure the stamens with a heat tool. Stamp one size smaller petal from the same set using Library green/ Cobalt Blue archival ink on green color cardstock and cut them using coordinating dies. Using the crushing technique, create calyx and complete the flower by securing them behind each flower for the complete flower look.
Stamp 3-4 sets of leaves using Leafy Accent stamp and Olive Green Archival ink and cut them using the coordinating dies. Color the leaves using the same inks and shape them using a deluxe flower shaping kit and add glittered pearls using a glossy accent
Stamp, color and cut few wisteria flowers using Leaf GreenFlower Archival ink and shape them using a flower shaping kit. Add flower pollens using a glossy accent and use these flowers as fillers.
Once all the elements are ready, assemble the card as shown and complete the card by adding a sentiment from For My Friend Sentiments Cling Stamp Set on the tag from Album Tags and Accents Die.
