Instructions:
Cut a piece of white cardstock 12” x 7 3/4″, score at 6” along the long side and fold to create a base card of 6” x 7 3/4″ card. Cut a piece of pale cream and green striped paper 5 7/8” x 7 5/8” and adhere to the front of the card using a piece of 7 1/2″ x 5 3/4” heavy cardboard. Die cut the outer plain edge die from the HCD2-7309 Elaborate Oval Frames Die set out of dark green patterned paper. Adhere to the card front with a piece of heavy cardboard die cut with the outer plain edge die. Die cut the outer decorative die from white cardstock using the outer decorative die from the HCD2-7309 Elaborate Oval Frames Die set. Add Frosting Powder to the decorative edge with Dries Clear glue on a damp sponge and adhere to the front of the green frame.

Stamp two snowy pine images from the HCPC-3918 Snowy Pines Cling Stamp Set on Iris cardstock with Black Onyx ink.

Shape using the coordinating mold with the patterned side up to create a cup shape and assemble using two of each size petal. Pierce the centres and add the pearl coloured Rose Hip stamens and the small pearl stamens. Add Frosting Powder to the stamens and flowers using Dries Clear glue on a damp sponge. Trim the wires and threads and adhere to the left side of the card as shown over the leaves.
