Just for You - Pop-Up Posies Designer Kit card

Today I'm playing with the Pop-up Posies Designer Kit.  Here's the card I came up with - which was inspired by one made by Michelle Reynolds on Stampin' connection.

Stamp: Just for You (comes with kit)
Ink: Black stazon
Papers: Calyspso coral, Whisper White, Old Olive, Calypso coral flowers (from kit), crumb cake die cut (from kit)
Accessories: Honeycomb folder, Secret Garden framelit, 1/4" Pool party satin ribbon (SAB), White fabric brad (from kit), rhinestones, mat pack & paper piercer,

Technique:
Flower: Take 5 Calypso coral flowers and with paper piercer  and mat,pierce a hole in the center of all of them.  Then insert a white fabric brad in the center of them making sure the petals are alternating.  With a bone folder or stylus, shape the petals of the flowers the way you want - some of mine are curled up and some curled down.  Spritz with Vanilla smooch.

Leaves: Die cut using Old Olive card stock & the leaves framelit die from the Secret Garden set.

Card: The base is Calypso Coral layered with Whisper White embossed with the Honeycomb folder. Next the sentiment was stamped on the Crumb Cake die cut from the kit using Black Stazon ink.  This stamped die cut was attached to the Whisper White layer towards the right side.  A piece of Pool Party satin ribbon (SAB) was attached to the Whisper White layer placing it across the top of the die cut.  Make a bow or a know and attach above the sentiment.  Rhinestones were attached below the sentiment.
Attach the leaves to the left side of the card using tombo glue.
Attach the flower above the leaves using dimensionals.
