7. Attach Constellations Lite Silver Sparkle Tape to the smallest strip leaving the first perforated area free of tape to ensure proper adhesion.

Due to the alignment of the polka dot in the center of the flower, I had to punch off the yellow tape. To correct, I added a dab of yellow with a marker.

10. Trim a sheet of 50s Kitchen Black Plain to 4x5.25". Stamp the UM Art Nouveau image onto the panel with White Pigment Ink to create a pattern.
