How to create bouquet card:
Cut White Cardstock 5-1/2" x 8-1/2". Score at 4-1/4". The fold will be on the left side.
Cut 4" x 5-1/4" piece of white with writing Black & White Tone-on-Tone Paper, adhere it to the front of card.
Using CCS Medium Circle Pattern (inside template) with Red Blade, cut a circle out of White Cardstock.
Using Friendship Micro Maker cut enough White Cardstock flowers to cover circle; adhere using Precision Point Adhesive.
Cut several (approx. 8) thin 3" long Green Cardstock strips. Adhere on card close together as shown. Adhere white circle on top.
Cut 7 white flowers using the Friendship Micro Maker, top with 7 white flowers cut with Meadow Micro Maker (using the Precision Point Adhesive). Use Fine-tip Black Pen to make 3 tiny dots on each Meadow Micro Maker flower. Adhere layered flowers to bouquet using Foam Squares. Fill in with additional white Meadow Maker flowers where necessary.
Make a bow using the Black & White Paper Ribbon. To do this: Cut two 2" strips of ribbon, cut ends at an angle and adhere to stems approx. 1/2" from bouquet. Cut approx. 4-1/2" of ribbon, loop in a circle and adhere ends together. Flatten loop, secure with Precision Point Adhesive. Adhere at the top of the hanging strips. Cut a small square scrap of ribbon and adhere to bow using a Foam Square.
