  • die cut the third largest die from the CURVED CAP PINPOINT LAYERS 94646 SET using one of the darker green card stock papers from the LUSH GREEN COLLECTION SP1003
  • die cut the THISTLE STEMS 94689 once from a light green card stock from the Lush Green Collection and once from a scrap of the same purple plaid used for the background

  • assemble the flowers by snipping the small purple buds off the purple flower stems and glue them over the green ones; add the larger separate blooms on top of the small purple buds, letting a bit of the smaller bud peek out from underneath
  • glue the flowers to the Curved Cap Pinpoint Layer
  • add this panel to the front of the note card
