Use the needle to make two small holes close to one another in a sugar paper flower. Push the brad prongs gently through each hole. Now make two small holes close to one another in the scrapbook paper flower and add it to the back of the sugar paper flower. Turn the flowers over and spread the brad prongs apart on the back side. The brads will keep the flowers in place and will imitate the flowers eyes. Do the same with the other two flowers.
Use a black colored felt-tip pen to add a mouth and nose for the flowers.
Glue the flowers to the front of the card.
Use a green colored felt-tip pen to add stems to the flowers.
Punch leaves from the leaf green cardstock and glue them in place.
