INSTRUCTIONS:
1-Color Your Flower Petals:
NOTE: Use a different Blending Brush for each color. Clean them at the sink under running water. Let dry completely before using again.
~Punch out Five Bee Bodies with the Bee Builder Punch. If the other shapes punch out you can use them on other projects. These will be your Flower Petals.
~Use a Small Blending Brush and White Craft ink to sponge the rounded end of each Petal where you want your darker color. Dry the ink with your Heat Tool. Use the Tweezers from the Embossing Additions Kit so you don’t burn your fingers.
~Sponge Crushed Curry ink over your sponged White ink. You can lightly brush Crushed Curry ink over the entire petal. Keep sponging to get the look you want.
2-Make Your Flower:
~Lay your Flower Petals in the design you want them.
~Use Glue Dots to keep the Petals in the position you want them.
3-Words:
He used some leftover Words I made when making This Video.

~Place the Die in the Embossing Folder.
~Put a piece of 6″ x 6″ Basic White cardstock inside the Embossing Folder.

~Use a Small Blending Brush with Crushed Curry ink to add color to the Words of your choice.
4-Finish Your Card:
