Set aside the positive image for another project.
Using your negative image, adhere ribbon to the back of the card front, covering the opening created by the die.
After covering a third of the image, change to the next color and continue changing again once filling up another third.
Once the cut out is covering, flip it over and check to make sure that you don’t see any space that isn’t filled with the ribbon.
Stamp your sentiment on the card front and set aside.
Using your flower dies, cut out the layers of the flower with your eBosser and assemble.
Add your button on top.
Using foam adhesive, adhere your flower to the card front.
