Becky's Stampin' Studio: botanical textures DSP

Patty Bennett was at it, again! This time she paired the 2-Tone Coneflowers with the Black and White Botanical Textures DSP in the Online Store. She has so many samples to share, but I chose this one with a little different orientation, and TWO flowers! (Yes, it does work!) This version uses shades of coral. I love it! Did you notice the "splatter" on the top layer of petals. Also, the bottom layer is only half of the folded Coneflower, stamped of course, so I needed to cut 2, as the stamp only fits one direction! I also added the "circle chain border", to give it a try!

Measurements:

Calypso Coral: 1/2 sheet cut LENGTHWISE
Petal Pink: 4" x 5 1/4"
Granny Apple Green: strip (for border)
Basic White: 4" x 5 1/4"
Botanical Textures DSP (N): 3 3/4" x 5", 1/2" x 5 1/4" strip (inside)
Calypso Coral 2-Tone Cardstock: 4" strip
Petal Pink 2-Tone Cardstock: 4" strip
Granny Apple Green 2-Tone Cardstock: 4" strip
Pecan Pie 2-Tone Cardstock: scrap

To Make this Card:

Adhere the Petal Pink and DSP layers to the folded Calypso Coral card base.
Finish the inside with White layer, and DSP strip.
Cut the HALF the "base" of the flower from Calypso Coral 2-Tone Cardstock dark side up. You will need 2 of these going the same direction, so that you can stamp the details. You will NOT need to die cut the full, folded base.
Also, cut 2 "top" layers from the darker side, and 2 "top" layers from the darker side of Petal Pink 2-Tone Cardstock
And, lastly, from scraps of Granny Apple Green 2-Tone Cardstock cut 1 leaf and one detailed leaf (2 different sides) and from Pecan Pie 2-Tone Cardstock cut 2 flower "centers", dark side up.
If desired, also die cut the border either from regular Granny Apple Green Cardstock or a 2-Tone Granny Apple Green scrap.
So, now to assemble.
Take the "base", determine the color ink you want to use, I used Calypso Coral. You will stamp this with the coordinating stamp on both "bases".. (Please NOTE: the stamp only fits one way. Line it up to the "skinny petal" on the left!)
Carefully add some Calypso Coral ink to the lower edge of the petals with a Blending Brush.
If desired, add some ink to the lower edge, and or, upper edge of the next, dark Calypso Coral layer.
Finish by adding Calypso Coral to the top and tips of the Dark Petal Pink layer. I also added some stamped off "splatter" in Early Espresso.
Before assembling, I shaped the petals of the 2 top layers, with a bone folder.
Next, adhere the 2 layers at the center.
Then, take the Pecan Pie center. Patty added some more intense color to the bottom with a 006 Neutral Blend, and then deepened/shaded with a Blending Brush and Early Espresso ink. Glue to the flowers. And, then add some Wink of Stella.
Now, to add to card front.
I first added the "border" if you decide to use it, as one of the "flowers" will overlap it a bit.
Arrange the flowers on the front. Adhere the top left card. When you adhere the bottom right "flower" leave room to tuck in a leaf.
Finish with scattered Timid Tiger Flat Pearls.
