The sweet onsie was stamped on 2 scraps of designer series paper (dsp). These were the die cut using the Cutest Onsie dies. I also die cut 2 coat hangers from scrap Silver Foil. The onsies were then added to the card front, one on Dimensionals and the other adhered down flat.

A strip of Early Espresso card was glued to the back of the stamped dsp, leaving a little visible at the top and bottom. This piece was then glued to the 5¼” by 3⅝” piece of Basic White card. A length of retired ⅛” White ribbon was wrapped around the layer before the panel was glued to the Petunia Pop card front.

The outline large flower image was stamped in Petunia pop ink onto scrap Basic White card. The solid, infill image was then stamped in 2nd generation Petunia Pop ink. I stamped the solid leaf image with 2nd generation Garden Green ink and added the detail with full strength Garden Green ink. Both images were then die cut using the Petals of Beauty dies before being added to the card front on Dimensionals.
