2-Washi Tape:
~Hold your Washi Tape over your Basic White cardstock.
~Line up the Washi Tape Sides with the Cardstock.
~Lay down the first 1″ or so leaving about 1/4″ to wrap to the back.
~Use your Index finger to smooth the Washi Tape onto the cardstock.
~If you mess up you can easily pull up the Washi Tape and try again.
~When you have the Washi Tape positioned the way you like it you can cut the one end off the roll.
~Wrap the ends to the back of your cardstock.
NOTE: If you don’t have the Washi Tape you can stamp or emboss the background. The Extraordinary Flora Die Bundle has the same images as are on the Washi Tape. You could also use patterned paper instead of the Washi Tape.
3-Hibiscus Flower:
~Get out your Die that cuts three flowers.
~Place it in your Embossing Folder where it fits.

~Use your Sponge Dauber to ink up the part of the Flowers Embossing Folder that sinks down.
~Place your cardstock and die over the Flowers.
