Here is the step by step for the card I demo-ed on Create and Craft on Thursday (18/8/22) at 11am for the Pergamano show using the resized A5 square Floral Swirls & Corners Groovi plates ...

Deluxe Groovi Plate Starter Kit + Butterfly Wreath A5 Square Plate GRO-SK-40709-XX
Tina's Floral Swirls & Corners 1 A5 Square Groovi Plate GRO-FL-41868-03

NOTE:
All the embossing on this project is done on the back.
The colouring on this project is done on the back.
All the perforating and cutting on this project are done from the front.
Step 1: On rainbow parchment (I have used Lavender Fields), with the glossy brighter side facing up (this is the back of the work), emboss the 4th largest square from the Nested Squares Groovi plate in the Deluxe Groovi Plate Starter Kit using the Groovi No.1 tool (or Pergamano 1mm embossing ball tool).
Step 3: In the opposite corner, emboss the floral corner from the Floral Swirls & Corners 1 Groovi plate using the Groovi No.1 tool (or Pergamano 1mm embossing ball tool).
Step 4: On either side of the embossed corner design, emboss the part of the floral corner from the Floral Swirls & Corners 1 Groovi plate - the smallest circles using the Groovi No.2 tool (or Pergamano 1.5mm embossing ball tool) and the rest of the line art using the Groovi No.1 tool (or Pergamano 1mm embossing ball tool).
Step 6: On separate pieces of parchment paper emboss the 3D elements from the 3D Flowers & Butterflies - 1 of the smallest flower and 3 of the larger butterflies on regular parchment and 3 smaller butterflies on rainbow parchment.
Step 7: Using the Groovi No.3 and No.4 tools (or Pergamano 1.5mm and 3mm embossing ball tools) gently emboss inside the circles starting with the largest ball tool and remembering to let the parchment rest between layers. I have embossed 4 layers on these circles.
Step 8: Still working on the back, colour using Perga Colours Exclusive pens.
Step 9: From the front, over the super foam, using Pergamano bold 2-needle perforating tool, perforate outside the main parchment piece and all the 3D elements.
Step 10: Picot cut between all the perforations making sure the scissors are over the waste when you cut.
To Finish: Add as much or as little (or none) Perga glitter as you wish.
Cut a square from corresponding Rainbow Paper that is slightly larger than the parchment piece.
Mount the rainbow parchment and 3D flower on the rainbow paper using brads.
Stick this on folded white card and stick the 3D butterflies on the card using a teeny tiny amount of Perga Glue on the back of the butterfly bodies.
The original Floral Swirls & Corners Groovi plates were larger A4 square plates. Here is a comparison of the same card design using the 2 different size plates. The smaller card has been made using the smaller A5 square plates on the rainbow parchment as per the step by steps above. The larger card has been made using the larger A4 square plates on the clear parchment.
Groovi plates and ingredients are available on http://www.claritystamp.com.
Sending everyone STAY SAFE WISHES sprinkled with PERGA GLITTER. Take care.
Lots of Love, Hugs and Laughter
