Instructions: Card size is 5”x7” (final Size). Cut Pattern paper from the Dazzling Dahlia Paper Collection HCDP1-2121, smaller than the card size 5.875” x 7.875” and adhere it on the card base.

Cut one frame die from Intricate Swirl Frames Die HCD2-7191 on white card-stock adhere it with foam tape on the card base. Take another pattern paper from the collection, distress the edges and adhere it on top of the intricate frame die using designer dries clear adhesive. Cut another frame die from Elaborate Oval Frames Die HCD2-7309 on white card-stock and on pattern paper also and adhere both dies and cut them in half and adhere them using foam tape, as pictured.

Stamp some dahlia flowers from Dazzling Dahlia Cling Stamp Set HCPC-3928 using archival ink-Magenta Hue and cut them with coordinating die Dazzling Dahlia Die HCD1-7323, color them using archival ink-sunflower (at the center of the petals), rose madder, majestic violet and plum on the edges of the petals, and shape them using 3D Dahlia Shaping Mold HCFB1-494. Use groove golf tool also to give some more shape to the petals. Take two large petals and two small petals to create layers. And for the centre take one small layer and do fringing cutting and give shape to create bud and place it at the centre. Make two flower sets. Add diamond dust randomly and adhere the flowers on the top left and bottom right side of the card.
