The ready top fold card measures 8″ by 6″. To prepare the white card base, cut one piece measuring 8″ by 6″ and the second piece 8 1/2″ by 6″. Score the second piece at 1/2″ on the longer side and glue the first piece on top. For the topmost layer, choose a teal color cardstock matching to the designer paper collection and cut 71/4″ by 5 1/4″. Next, cut a coordinating paper from the designer paper collection, 1/16" smaller on all the sides and layer it on the card front using foam tapes.

Cut 2 pieces of delicate frame from white cardstock using Simply Classic Rectangle Frame Die and glue them together to add strength. Adhere the ready frame on the solid cover die-cut, cut using the same die from white cardstock which is distressed using teal color distress ink.

Using the crushing technique, create calyx and complete the flower by securing them behind each flower for the complete flower look.
