Step 1

Using your paper trimmer, cut a piece of the lightest purple cardstock down to 10" x 6½" [25.4 cm x 16.5 cm], then score and fold to 5" x 6½" [12.7 cm x 16.5 cm].

Step 2

Cut smaller pieces of cardstock to layer on top of the card.
TIP: Use different shades of the purple cardstock and even add a piece from the rainbow inks pad with the Gold marbling. The top layer should be solid so your lavender will show up best. If you love the addition of the Gold accents, use a Gold paint pen to add an accent border around the top layer.

Step 3

Click here for the design in Cricut® Design Space™. Size the lavender flowers to fit your card.

Step 4

Click ‘Make It’ in the upper right corner of your screen.

Step 5

Now, click ‘Continue’ in the bottom right corner of your screen and choose the correct material.

Step 6

Place the cardstock onto your cutting mat. Load the mat into your Cricut® machine, then press the blinking Cricut® icon to start cutting.

Step 7

Once your machine is done cutting each layer, carefully peel the cut design from the mat. You can use your weeder tool to help with the detail areas.

Step 8

Use a glue pen on the back of each flower to adhere to your card.

Step 9

Add a sentiment sticker and a Gold heart sticker.
