- Cover the stamp with Marina Mist Classic Ink and stamp onto a small piece of Marina Mist Card Stock, and
- Cover the stamp with Pacific Point Classic Ink and stamp onto a small piece of Pacific Point Card Stock.
Step 7. Using the Elegant Butterfly Punch, punch out each butterfly and spritz them.
Step 8. Using the Beautiful Wings Embosslit and the Big Shot, cut out a small butterfly from Bashful Blue, Marina Mist, and Pacific Point Card Stock. Spritz the butterflies.
Step 9. Place three small Basic Pearls onto the floral butterflies, and one on the small butterflies.

Step 11. Attach the Whisper White Card Stock with the butterflies onto the Bashful Blue Card Stock in the center of the embossed tulips.
