- Use E43 marker to add small dots to fill in the negative spaces between the images.

- Make an A2 top-folding card base from Sand cardstock by trimming the cardstock down to 11” x 4 1/4” then scoring at 5 1/2”.
- Adhere the die cut arch to the card front with liquid glue using the remaining panel as a jig to get the arch in the right place on the card front. Then adhere the panel to the card front with foam adhesive.

- Ink-blend over the die cuts with several core inks (combos below), using the Color Layering Floral Butterfly Stencils (Classic & Premium) to create the details. Note: Flip one of the leaf die cuts over to create a mirrored image of the leaves.
