4. Lay the rectangle accent on a small piece of Whisper White Card Stock and trace along the INSIDE of the accent. Cut out the accent and stamp on it the sentiment, “Thank You”, in Baked Brown Sugar Classic Ink (the sentiment is also from the Morning Meadow Hostess Stamp Set). Sponge the edges with Crisp Cantaloupe Classic Ink.
5. Lay the rectangle accent onto a small piece of Baked Brown Sugar Card Stock and trace along the OUTSIDE of the accent. Cut out the accent and sponge it with matching ink.
6. Cut a 5″ x 3-3/4″ piece of Whisper White Card Stock. Ink the floral stamp from the Morning Meadow Hostess Stamp Set with Crisp Cantaloupe Classic Ink. Randomly stamp the image around the edges of the card stock (I stamped the image twice before re-inking). Sponge the edges with Crisp Cantaloupe Classic Ink.

8. Adhere the Whisper White Card Stock to the Baked Brown Sugar Card Stock.

10. Adhere the Whisper White accent with the sentiment onto the Crisp Cantaloupe accent.
11. Add foam adhesive to the back of the of the sentiment and mat, and adhere it to the Baked Brown Sugar accent.
12. Use a permanent peach marker to color two pearls and add them to the sentiment.
13. Randomly adhere the smallest pearls in the center of some of the flowers.
There is so much more that could be added to this card, and the colors certainly can be substituted. You may want to change the center piece with the sentiment by using other framelits and sentiments. Regardless, ENJOY!
God’s Blessings!
