Using a blending Brush (#153611) in Cinnamon Cider ink (#153114) add color to the gold foiled white background DSP. When desired tone is reached adhere to the base Cinnamon Cider Cardstock.

With a Basic White scrap punch out the Elegant tag punch.

Stamp the corner image in the Cinnamon Cider ink and stamp off 1-2 times and stamp the lightened image onto the edge of the tag.

Stamp the sentiment full strength onto the tag, using the blending brush add a little color to the edges and pop up on dimensionals, placing it in the lower right hand side of the card.

Using the other scrap piece of Basic White cardstock stamp the flower image twice in Versamark and pour the Gold Embossing powder and heat set it with the Stampin’ Heat Tool.

Fussy Cut the flowers and layer them under the tag on the front of the card.

Open up the card and stamp in Cinnamon Cider ink the corner stamp in the upper right hand corner, the sentiment in the middle and then adhere the 4″ x 1/2″ sheet of DSP paper that is colored in the same way as the larger piece to the bottom of the card inside!

Using a Blender Brush place the new Pale Papaya Open Weave ribbon on the ink pad, apply pressure and pull the ribbon through the space below the blending brush- dragging it across the ink pad surface – do this on both sides to color both sides evenly.
