All base pieces are 4"x 6" to fit the pockets. And the other pieces of cardstock and paper are punched or cut from scraps.

For the green (Cucumber Crush) piece, I stamped the swirl image using Daffodil Delight ink onto some scrap white. Then I stamped the words, cut around the swirl with the snips and attached it to the green background piece. I made the pink flower accents by punching out one Cucumber Crush and two Watermelon Wonder flowers with the small flower punch from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack. Yep! The leaves are actually made with a 1/2 flower!

For the yellow (Daffodil Delight) piece, I stamped the swirl image randomly.  I made the pink flower by punching out one Cucumber Crush and one Watermelon Wonder flower (from the Color Me Irresistibly Yours designer paper) using the Pansy punch. Then I stamped the banner and happy images onto scrap white cardstock and cut it out. I attached the flower and the banner to the yellow background and then stamped the speckles here and there.

For the white piece I stamped the swirl image. I then took a sponge and with a circular motion rubbed over the swirl image. Using a sponge in this way removes the ink sitting on the shiny areas of the paper and softly adds it around the non-shiny areas near the image.

Ta-da!
