  • Next add one Wildflower Birthday triangle piece to the front triangle of the card.  Then add the second piece to the inside covering up the Basic White on the right
  • Stamp the sentiment “It’s a Good Day to Celebrate” in Blueberry Bushel on the bottom left corner of the flower tag
  • Add the flower tag (I cut the top off) to the Blueberry Bushel piece
