Directions:

1.      Using the Big Shot cut out the two tags in Whisper White.

2.       Stamp 3 flower images on the Wisteria Wonder Card Stock and punch them out using the Blossom Punch.

a.       Punch out 3 solid Wisteria Wonder Blossom flowers.

b.      Layer/off-set the flowers so that the stamped image is on top. (SNAIL or Multipurpose Glue)

c.       Attach a small pearl to the center of each.

d.      Attach 1 to the bookmark tag SNAIL or Multipurpose Glue)

e.      Set the other 2 flower aside for later.

3.       Using Wisteria Wonder, punch out two 5 Petal Flowers. 

a.       Layer/off-set the flowers using SNAIL or Mulitpurpose Glue.

b.      Attach a small pearl to the center.

c.       Attach to the larger tag using Multipurpose Glue – part of the flower will be higher than the tag, so put the glue on the tag NOT the flower itself.   I find that the slit in the tag is a good stopping spot for the glue.  Glue will be above the slit, not below

 

4.       Creating your card base:

a.       Using the 8 ½” x 11” piece of Designer Series Paper (Paper Stack) – Simply Scored Scoring Tool

                                                               i.      8 ½ “ side …. Score at 4 ¼”

                                                             ii.      11” side …. Score at 5 ½”

b.      Using the Diagonal Plate

                                                               i.      8 ½” side … Score at 4 ½”

                                                             ii.      Turn paper … 8 ½” side … score at 4 ½”

                                                            iii.      (no scoring on the 11” side on the diagonal plate)

c.       Crisply crease all your score lines on the card base.  Do the 4 ¼” and 5 ½” creases first and lay card stock flat.

                                                               i.      With corners placed inward (lower right corner and upper left), fold card up

                                                             ii.      Then fold left to right.

                                                            iii.      This creates your two pockets.

5.       Punch out the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border using the 2” x 7” piece of Whisper White.

a.       Place SNAIL on top of the front crease, then place ribbon on top.

b.      Trim to fit.

6.       Attach the small piece of DSP across the bottom of the front of the card.

7.       Attach the remaining two flowers to the front.

8.       Slide in bookmark in the front pocket.

9.       Slide in tag in the inside pocket.
