2. Attach the Pressed Petals Designer Paper piece to the Pineapple Punch piece of cardstock with Snail adhesive. Then, wrap linen thread around the middle of the layer and tie a bow. Attach the layer to the card front with snail adhesive.
3. Use the medium Daisy Punch and cut 6 flowers from the 6” x 3 ½” piece of Whisper White Cardstock. Use a sponge dauber and Pineapple Punch ink pad to ink the centers of the punched flowers a little. Then, stack two flowers a little off to make the flower look fuller and stick together with a glue dot. Make 3 full flowers with 2 punched pieces each. Attach to the card front with glues dots as show in the picture.
4. Die cut a 2 1/8” square from the Fluid 100 watercolor paper with the Stitched Shapes Dies. Then, stamp the cow using Staz-On ink.

6. Finally, attach that square to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals to complete your over the moon 3D image.

First of all, the idea here is to express yourself with this lovely card creation. Additionally, the colors coordinate so well. The Doilies just compliment the background and probably give you an added amount of creativity. I’m always happy to try new things and step out of my comfort zone with a card. Maybe this would be that card for you. So take a chance and express yourself with the Dear Doily stamp set.
