First, I stamped the Hardwood background on the Old Olive panel, using Always Artichoke ink and adhered it onto the Old Olive card front.

I then stamped the flower silhouette from the Just Believe stamp set onto the Basic White small panel, using Old Olive ink.

Next, I adhered it onto the Apricot Appeal matte and then onto the card front, leaving space at the bottom for the sentiment. 

I then stamped the sentiment on the scrap of Basic White, using Tuxedo Black Memento. You can change the sentiment to suit your current need.

Next, I punched out the sentiment, using the Word Window punch and adhered it onto the card front.

I then punched out the flowers: 

   Large one-Apricot Appeal-Boho Blossoms Punch

   Small one-Daffodil Delight-Petite Petals punch.

Next, I attached them onto the card front, using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a pearl to the center of each punched flower and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
