- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Poppy Parade cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded. The front opening was cut using the Garden Meadow arch die.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock was stamped with the Simply Zinnia stamp in Memento Black Ink, then colored with Poppy Parade/Bubble Bath, Calypso Coral/Pumpkin Pie, and Blackberry Bliss, Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends for the flowers and Lemon Lime Twist/Old Olive for the stems and leaves. The layer was adhered to the inside.
- The greeting from Simply Zinnia stamp set was stamped with Poppy Parade Ink on Bubble Bath cardstock and punched with the Double Oval scallop oval punch. The bottom half was adhered to the bottom flap of the front.
- Two dragonflies from Dragonflies & Birds embellishments were added to the upper left corner.


SUPER simple, but I love the stitching around the arch AND I have the part I removed to use on another card!
