INSTRUCTIONS
1. Run the 4-1/4” x 5-1/2” piece of Basic White CS through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the largest Scalloped Contour Die. Stamp the Dots (as shown) using the Highland Heather Ink. I stamped them 3 times and I re-inked the stamp after each use.
2. The Color & Contour Stamp Set is a 2 Step Stamp Set. It comes with outline and solid stamps. Stamp the outline of the Flowers and Stem using the Gorgeous Grape ink on the 2-1/4” x 5-1/2” Basic White CS. To fill in the Flowers, use the corresponding solid stamp and Highland Heather ink. Cut it out using the corresponding Scalloped Contour Die and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
3. Ink up the Happy Mother’s Day Stamp from the Timeless Tulips Stamp Set, using the Highland Heather Ink. Stamp it on the 1-1/2” x 3” piece of Basic White CS. Run it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Smallest Scalloped Contour Die.
4. Assemble each Card as follows:
• Fold Gorgeous Grape Card Base then crease it using Bone Folder; the fold should be along the left hand side.
• Adhere the largest piece of the Basic White CS to the Card Base using Stampin’ Seal.
• Adhere the cut out Flower (cover some of the dots) to the Gorgeous Grape Card Base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Apply the Stampin’ Dimensionals only to the Flower and not the stem or the leaves.
• Adhere the stamped “Happy Mother’s Day” Basic White CS layer to the Card Front using Stampin’ Dimensionals; and,
5. Decorate inside of Card using stamps as desired; decorate Envelope if you choose.
