Basic Instructions:
1. Adhere Real Red onto Night of Navy in the landscape direction.
2. Stamp Real Red solid flower several times and then Night of Navy solid flower several times
3. Using the outline stamp, go over the red and blue. It works and looks better without trying to line it up.
4. Stamp the dots to fill some of the white space. I stamped off once.
5. I used Glad Press'Seal to line up my letters taped to grid paper with Post It tape. Put the letters upside down; left to right. (Don't worry about centering because you can center when you flip it onto the blue.)
6. Carefully, add a small amount of liquid glue to each letter.
7. Flip the letters right side up and adhere onto the blue strip.
8. Glue the blue onto the red strip
9. Adhere the Basic White to the inside of the card. I also stamped a flower "fireworks" to the bottom right corner.
10. Add 3 Basic Rhinestone jewels as a touch of sparkle.
