Who doesn’t like a bouquet of flowers? Make this quick and easy card and send some to someone who needs a pick me up…

Supplies:

Prism Cardstock
Heidi Swapp Florals
American Crafts Ribbon
Prima Accent Kit - Summer

Tools:

Adhesive of your choice
Heidi Swapp Paper Piercer
Needle
Glue Dots
Colorbox Fluid Chalk – Charcoal
Trimmer


Directions:

1. Cut an 8 ½” x 5 ½” piece of green cardstock. Fold it in half to make a card measuring 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.

2. Cut a 5 ¼” x 4” piece of Metropolis “Main Street” cardstock. Adhere two Heidi Swapp florals to this paper as shown.

3. With a pencil, draw two “stems” from the bottom of the flowers to the bottom of the patterned paper.

4. Cut a 9” length of green polka dot ribbon. Cut it in half again – lengthwise to make two 9 inch ribbon strips.

5. CAREFULLY thread a needle with this ribbon and backstitch a stem in the holes you just punched. Be sure to manipulate the ribbon so that the polka dot pattern is showing. You can cut sections of ribbon to look like leaves and attach with glue dots. Secure in back with tape.

6. Ink edges of patterned paper and adhere to cardstock.

7. Adhere clear Prima flower jewels to centers of flowers with glue dots.

8. Cut one last Heidi Swapp flower in half and fill in at the top and bottom of your bouquet as needed.
