1
Fold a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of Crumb Cake cardstock in half, creasing it well with a bone folder.

In black ink, stamp the flower image centered on a 3" x 4" piece of Crumb Cake cardstock.
-

Stamp just the lower right portion of the flower itself onto a 1 3/4" x 1 3/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock. Using an Aqua Painter and your choice of Watercolor Pencils, color the flower on the white as you wish. Mount this piece onto a 1 7/8" square of Real Red cardstock. Add a few Stampin' Dimensionals to the back of this piece, and matching up the flower lines, adhere it over the uncolored image.

Mount this entire piece to a 3 1/8" x 4 1/8" piece of Real Red cardstock and adhere it to the card base with equal margins at the right and top.

In black ink, stamp the sentiment onto a 3/4" x 3" piece of Whisper White cardstock. Add two of the homemade red dots alongside the words. Adhere this to a 3 1/8" x 7/8" piece of Real Red cardstock. Use a few Dimensionals to add it to the bottom of the card.
