Mist about 3-4 sprays of water on the powder from about 7” above the cardstock. Tap a few areas of orchid Color Burst on the right and left sides of the cardstock. Mist with water 1-2 sprays only on the orchid powder. Let dry. Repeat for the second piece of cardstock.
3. Place the Design Tool largest label on one piece of the colorful cardstock and trace around the edges. Cut out the shape and erase any pencil lines. Mat on black with thin borders. Foam tape it centered on the card. Place the Bohemian Dreams Scrapbooking Dazzles™ on the colorful cardstock as shown. Overlap the flower and leaves, trimming away the excess from the leaves on the overlapped areas.

Take the remaining piece of colorful cardstock and place the Design Tool Double Bracket Label shape on it. Trace around the edges with the pencil, then cut out the shape. Mat the shape on black cardstock with thin borders. Glue it centered on the matted metallic gold specialty paper. Place Dazzles™ on the label as shown. Zot™ knotted ribbon in place.
