3. Take a 13cm square white blank and matt green spotty paper to the bottom-left corner. Apply the stamped panel to the card front using double-sided tape.

4. Die cut a banner from white and stamp ‘Congratulations’ using red ink. Secure to the card with 3D foam pads. Stamp a flower and leaf, layering up each motif. Die cut with the coordinating dies, then adhere to the card.


Statement Centrepiece

2. Mount the panel onto a slightly larger blank with double-sided tape. Stamp three flowers and two leaves onto white, layering up the motifs using the step-by-step as a guide. Die cut the images and arrange them into a cluster.

3. Using the cluster as a guide, stamp leaves and floral sprays in the centre of the card front. Secure the die-cut flowers on top. Stamp a sentiment in black onto a die-cut banner, then fix to the top of the card with double-sided tape.
