Cut white cardstock 2x to 3 1/2 x 6 3/4”. Stamp ‘Hope your day is as special as you are’ on one, ink the edges and adhere to the inside of the card. Emboss the other one using Georgette Lace embossing folder, adhere to a piece of 3 5/8 x 6 7/8” designer paper sheet 12B and adhere to card front using dimensional tape.

Stamp the flowers from the Hollyhock Petals & Leaves Cling Stamp set on Deluxe Flower Shaping paper using Lovely Lipstick ink, color with the same ink and diecut using the coordinating dies. Color the backs of the flowers, too. Place the flowers in the Hollyhock Shaping Mold and run through the diecut machine. Pierce the flower centers using the Groove Golf tools and add a yellow stamen to each flower securing with hot glue. Sponge with dries clear adhesive and sprinkle with crystal clear glitter.
