One more try

 I made another attempt to use this kit from the last 2 posts.  This time, I stamped the floral image, then colored it using the stencils with blending brushes and ink pads.  After this, I used the die to cut out the image.  Next, I used embossing folder to give some texture.  Finally, I glued the die cut image to 5" x7" card base, wrapping the excess around to back of card.  This is a lovely set, I just wish it was a bit smaller to fit the cards most people make.

Keep trying

 Since I tried the new to me technique, explained in my last post Here, I tried to figure out a way to use these new supplies.  One of my problems was checking placement of cardstock in embossing folder.  I aligned the stamp with the embossing folder, then placed them in my Misti stamp positioner and closed the Misti door on the stamp.  I remove embossing folder and stamped image on cardstock.  I then colored the image with my stencils and cut out the colored image with die.  Finally, I placed die cut image in embossing folder and ran it through my Big Shot.  I layered it on another die cut image and adhered it to a 5 1/2" X 7" card base, then die cut a sentiment and added this to card front.  I had to cut off part of the leaf on lower left to fit the card.
