Flourishing Corners Frame
Flourishing Corners Frame

Instructions:
The ready side-fold card base measures 7 x 7 inches on Ivory cardstock. Use sheet 1B and 9B from HCDP1-2144 Elegant Rose Frames Paper Collection to cut a mat layer of size 1/8th inch lesser than the card base and adhere them on the front and inside panels. Using HCD2-7399 Flourish Companion Frame Die, cut 4 pieces of gold cardstock with the smallest dies and adhere them on the corners of the front panel.
Take a piece of Ivory cardstock measuring 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches, run it through with the embossing folder and sponge edges and the embossed area with some Majestic Violet ink. Add another layer of Ivory cardstock with size slightly larger in size than the embossed layer. Take a 1-inch violet satin ribbon and adhere it around 2 of the opposite corners of the ready panel and adhere this panel to the center of the card base with dimensional tape.
Take another strip of Ivory cardstock measuring 6 1/4 x 2 1/4 inches, sponge the edges slightly with Majestic Violet ink and add another strip of sheet 6A on top leaving a thin frame around. Add this ready strip on the card base as shown using dimensional tape.
On white cardstock, stamp the rectangle frame image from HCPC-31003 Stylish Rose Frame Cling Stamp Set and black heat emboss. Color the image using watercolors and cut using the coordinating die along with few extra die- cuts. Stack and adhere these die-cuts together with the colored image on top. With gold cardstock, cut 2 pieces of the smallest decorative piece from HCD2-7383 Simply Classic Rectangle Frame Die, cut them in 2 halves and adhere them on the center of the card base along with the colored rectangle frame as shown.
For the sentiment, stamp and black heat emboss the 'Have a Wonderful Day' image from HCPC-31004 Elegant Rose Sentiments Cling Stamp Set on white cardstock. Color the image using watercolors and die-cut using the coordinating die along with a few extra die-cuts. Using Ivory cardstock, die-cut the outer frame of the sentiment piece and sponge the edges slightly with Majestic Violet ink. Stack and glue the die-cuts together with the colored image on top and adhere this ready element to the card center as shown, using dimensional tape.
Finally, add some off-white flat-back pearls around the focal image.
