Color Blocked Coneflower

I caught a glimpse of this card on a Facebook Reel, grabbed a screenshot, and never found it again! So, here is my take on this neat Color-Blocked Coneflower. It utilizes the new, Floral Charm DSP, along with the new Floral Impressions DSP and the Coneflower Celebration Dies. I love the use of that decorative border die, and the little dots that get removed from it!

Measurements:

Basic White: 1/2 sheet, scrap
Pretty in Pink: 2 1/2" x 4" (detail flower)
Blackberry Bliss: 1" x 4 1/4" (border), scrap (flower center)
Adhesive Sheet: 1" x 4 1/4"
Floral Charm DSP (N): 2 3/8" x 3 3/4" (Blackberry Bliss print)
Floral Impressions DSP (N): 1" x 4" , 1/2" x 5 1/2" (pink floral), 1" x 3 3/4" (garden green)

To Make This Card:

Die cut full "coneflower" from Pretty in Pink 2-Tone cardstock. Die cut "detail coneflower" from regular cardstock, and lastly die cut flower "center" from Blackberry Bliss cardstock.
Fold full flower in half so the lighter color is facing out. Add the detail and then the center.
Shape the top layer with a bone folder, and then add a little Wink of Stella to these petals and the center. Set aside.
Start the Color-Block effect from the left. Add the floral piece, with a narrow border.
Adhere adhesive sheet to back of Blackberry Bliss piece and cut out 2 circular borders. Save some of the dots for later.
Remove the backing of one, and adhere to the card front close to cut edge of floral piece.
Next, add Blackberry Bliss piece, centering between the border and the cut edge. You should have a narrow border on the top and right.
Next, add the other circular border. You will need to carefully remove one ring with Paper Snips.
Lastly, add the Garden Green DSP, centering below the upper DSP and border.
Take 6 dots from the border, remove backing, and then add to Garden Green piece, as shown.
Stamp sentiment in Blackberry Bliss ink onto scrap of White. Die cut with smallest Textured Notes Dies. Add to card front with Dimensionals, centering in Garden Green piece.
Finish by stamping sentiment in Blackberry Bliss ink inside "flower", then attaching the flower, at an angle, to the Blackberry DSP.
And, then add scattered clear Strawberry Slush and Pretty in Pink gems.
