8.     Assemble: Attach the bee to the Basic White circle with Dimensionals. Attach the circle with Dimensionals to card front over the embossed Petunia Pop. With Dimensionals on the back, slide the 2 medium circles behind the Basic White slightly. Attach with Dimensionals the smallest circle and have it overlap the Basic White circle. Attach the Daffodil Delight greeting on the lower half and overlapping a circle. Put Dimensionals just on the back of the ends of the Daffodil Delight so it lays flat on the circle.

9.     Embellish with 3 Party Dots in the Daffodil Delight color.
