Howdy Stampers!
Thanks for taking time to visit my blog today. The Petal Palette suite on page 23 of the Occasions catalog and the coordinating Memories and More packet on Page 24 are, I believe, my favorite offering in this catalog. Well, maaaybee second to Waterfront but…I digress.
This is one of the more clean and simple cards that I have made with this bundle. I think you may just want to try this card! So….
I am going to add detailed instructions for you today. Please leave me a comment if you really like all the measurements and instructions! Your feedback (and your orders) are what keep me posting.

Color the flowers with the Pink Pirouette Blends and the leaves with the Old Olive Blends.

Adhere to the focal piece with dimensionals. Add small bow, as shown, with mini glue dot.

- Add focal point to the center of the card front.
- Squeeze a small amount of multipurpose glue onto the silicone craft sheet. Adhere the die cut floral glimmer pieces by dabbing with multipurpose glue picked up with stampin’ sponge from the silicone craft sheet.
- Add a Smoky Slate panel to the inside of the card after stamping focal point floral image to the lower right corner with Tuxedo Black ink. Add any sentiment you choose inside.
