The ready top fold card from the smooth white cardstock measures 7″ by 7″. To prepare the top panel, choose the light color plainer paper from the designer paper collection and cut it to size measuring 6 3/4″ by 6 3/4″. Dry emboss it using an embossing folder and layer the embossed panel on the card front using foam tapes.
Using Simply Elegant Centerpiece Die, cut one piece each in white and Luxe gold cardstock. Glue them together keeping the gold one at the back a little off-center creating a shadow. Next, take the first and the third largest die from the Simple Centerpiece die set and cut a frame from white cardstock. Diecut the 2nd largest of the Simple Centerpiece die set cutting from the same sheet as your background sheet. This will create a backer for the white frame. Adhere ribbon as shown. Diecut using the 5th largest Simple Centerpiece die, to cut an aqua octogon from the paper collection.
Layer the frame using foam dots on the card panel as shown. Next layer the centerpiece die-cut on top giving it a double layer of foam tape.

Layer the colored banner with an open window as shown and finally layer it on the card front.
