Cut two pieces of Courtyard Elegance die cut in white card stock. Remove the centre using Circle dies coordinating with the centre of the die cut. Cut one die cut into two pieces from the centre. Adhere one half of the die cut to the left of the mat layer and the other half on the right of the card base. Adhere the second whole piece on the centre of the card base.
Cut out an eyelet circle frame from luxe gold card stock that coordinates with circle in the Courtyard Elegance die cut. Cut out another small circle frame from Eyelet Basics Circle die set.
