Instructions: Cut a panel from the paper collection slightly smaller than 6” x 6” and adhere to the inside of the card base.
Stamp the sentiment onto white card using tangelo ink and die cut using the heart die. Die cut a slightly larger eyelet heart from coordinating paper and layer these onto the inside of the card base. Add gems under the sentiment
Die cut 4 large circles of paper from the collection and edge with tangelo ink. Adhere each circle to a semi-circle flap at the front of the card and gently fold the free semi-circle into the centre of the back of the card.
Interlock the papers on the reverse of the card, slide a length of ribbon under 2 of the interlocked papers so that they can be tied at the front of the card. Adhere into place with dries clear glue.
Die cut 2 gold eyelet circles using the rounded eyelet window, use the semicircle die to die cut top and bottom of the circle and cut in half. Adhere to the front flaps of the card base
Make the flowers: Colour the stamens with tangleo ink. Stamp the smallest flower petals x2, the 2nd size x 4 and the 3rd size x 3 using tangelo ink. Die cut and edge the petals with tangelo ink and colour the reverse. Place the flowers face down into the mold and spritz with water, run through the die cutting machine to shape. Make a hole in the centre of each set of petals and layer together with hot glue pulling 5 black bead stamens and 12 bridal stamens through each set of petals.
Make the leaves: Stamp onto paper from the collection using bamboo leaves, die cut and edge with bamboo leaves ink. Place into the mold with the flower petals and run through the die cutting machine.
Position the leaves and flowers onto the card using hot glue, add dries clear adhesive to the petals and sprinkle over lions mane glitter.
