Instructions: Cut white card stock 10 inches x 7 inches. Score at 5 inches mark on the longer side and fold to form a card base 7 inches by 5 inches. Cut a pattern paper that is shown on the card and a little smaller than the card base and adhere to the card front using clear glue.
Cut a border in white card stock and distress with Spiced Marmalade distress ink using a sponge dauber. Cut a pattern paper coordinating with the border using the plain border die. Adhere the distressed border die under the plain pattern paper die cut. Cut another die cut with plain border and pattern paper. Adhere the designed border die cut on the card front using foam dots. Then add the second border die cut forming two layers of border dies.
Cut a circle die in brown card stock and another one in white card stock. Score the white circle die cut at 1/8 inch intervals on the scoring board and distress with spiced Marmalade distress ink pad. Adhere the two die cuts on the top right of the card above the borders using foam tape. Cut a large hexagon with brown card stock. On this add another white smaller hexagon that has been distressed with distress ink. Adhere this on the left side of the card.
