I started by apply red and green ink to the hollyhocks stamp using markers, lightly misting with water and then stamping on the smallest scalloped layer. I attached a grass border section to the scalloped layer to fill in behind the picket fence.  I cut the small grass border and then cut again using the scalloped die to make the grass match up with the scalloped layer.  Wow!  I hope that made sense.  I attached the small grass border to the front of the fence with double stick tape and then attached the fence to the scalloped layer using mounting tape.

I cut the hollyhocks and attached them in behind the fence with glossy accents.  I added a few tiny pieces of mounting tape to some of the upper flower sections to hold them in place.  I cut a few sections of foliage apart and tucked them in behind the fence and in the grass on the front to the fence.  I finished by adding the tiny red butterflies.  This will be a fun card to send to my mother-in-law.  My husband send her one of my cards every week and she loves them.
