I noticed the inside of some of the caps were a total mess so I poured a little 91% isopropyl alcohol into them &amp; thought it was a shame to waste all that color. So I poured it out onto a white piece of card stock. I liked the way it looked so I used it for the flowers &amp; greeting. The lg circle burst was die cut into the white &amp; a turquoise layer put behind. Then all I had to do was arrange the flowers, add a few sequins &amp; some Copic tinted crystals. I will mention in case any of you have trouble (like I do) getting the letters straight&#8230;I left the letters in the die, added tiny dots of glue to the backsides, then turned the die over onto the c\/s &amp; pressed thru the die holes to release. Worked like a charm!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Here&#8217;s a look at the inside. I used the negative of one of the flowers as a stencil.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Flower-Friends-inside-01855.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-28274 \" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Flower-Friends-inside-01855-333x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"308\" height=\"370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Flower-Friends-inside-01855-333x400.jpg 333w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Flower-Friends-inside-01855-146x175.jpg 146w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Flower-Friends-inside-01855-499x600.jpg 499w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Flower-Friends-inside-01855.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 308px) 100vw, 308px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Thanks so much for stopping by!<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Julie2-sig.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12715\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Julie2-sig.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"134\" height=\"50\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Supplies:<\/span><\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"90%\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"6\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody id=\"collapseobj_photoinfo\">\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><b>Stamps:<\/b><b>\u00a0none<\/b><a href=\"http:\/\/drsdesigns.com\/products\/Hope-Your-Day-Sparkles-Greeting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><b>Paper: <\/b>Staples 110# white, turquoise<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><b>Ink: ink inside Copic marker caps \u00a0<\/b>(Distress spun sugar, tumbled glass, tattered rose used on inside)<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><b>\u00a0Accessories: MFT\u00a0<\/b>stitched flowers &amp; Friend dies, Memory Box lg. circle burst die, isopropyl alcohol, sequins, crystals<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!-- BEGIN thumbnail code by justwritedesigns.com--><\/p>\n<div>\n<div style=\"display: table-cell; float: left; text-align: center;\">\u00a0\n<\/div>\n<table border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<div style=\"display: table-cell; text-align: center; float: left;\">\n<div style=\"display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; width: 82px; height: 79px; border: none;\"><a title=\" MFT Stitched Flowers \" href=\"https:\/\/i.pinimg.com\/564x\/7e\/13\/d5\/7e13d5e0687debe3a54e17c1dc290b17.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none;\" src=\" https:\/\/i.pinimg.com\/564x\/7e\/13\/d5\/7e13d5e0687debe3a54e17c1dc290b17.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"70px\" height=\"75px\" border=\"0\" \/> <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"overflow: hidden; width: 82px; line-height: 1.1; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom;\"><a title=\" MFT Stitched Flowers \" href=\"https:\/\/shrsl.com\/25ocr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <span style=\"color: #f4cccc;\"> MFT Stitched Flowers<\/span><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<div style=\"display: table-cell; text-align: center; float: left;\">\n<div style=\"display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; width: 82px; height: 79px; border: none;\"><a title=\" MFT Words for Friends dies \" href=\"https:\/\/i.pinimg.com\/474x\/12\/f5\/14\/12f514e2edbd6b15e39279a0792bddfd.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none;\" src=\" https:\/\/i.pinimg.com\/474x\/12\/f5\/14\/12f514e2edbd6b15e39279a0792bddfd.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"70px\" height=\"75px\" border=\"0\" \/> <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"overflow: hidden; width: 82px; line-height: 1.1; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom;\"><a title=\" MFT Words for Friends dies \" href=\"https:\/\/i.pinimg.com\/474x\/12\/f5\/14\/12f514e2edbd6b15e39279a0792bddfd.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <span style=\"color: #f4cccc;\"> MFT Words for Friends dies <\/span><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<div style=\"display: table-cell; text-align: center; float: left;\">\n<div style=\"display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; width: 82px; height: 79px; border: none;\"><a title=\" MB Lg.
