I used the infill stamp to add Blackberry Bliss ink to the largest flower and Cherry Cobbler ink to the smaller flower. I love the watercolor effect of these images.

The leaves were stamped in Soft Succulent ink.

I adhered the stamped layer to the Cherry Cobbler panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and wrapped a length of Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon around the panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape. The panel was then added to the Blackberry Bliss panel using the same glue.

I stamped the sentiment in Cherry Cobbler ink onto the scrap Basic White card and die cut it out with the Layering Circle Dies using the Mini Cut & Emboss Machine. I die cut a slightly larger scalloped circle from the Soft Succulent scrap card. The circles were then glued together and added to the card front on Dimensionals.
