Instructions: This card when finished, measures 6 1/2” x 8 1/4”. Taking the white card stock, make a tent fold card base to the above measurements.
Find the sheet 9B in the paper collection. Trim this a little smaller than the card base measurement. Use this for the card front but first prepare this by using the crafting paste and the mask to give this texture. When this is dry, apply the glimmer mist. When the misting is dry, apply a little gilding wax here and there. Adhere this now to the card front.
Using the white card stock, the Ornate Gateway and the Eyelet Frame die sets to make the frames. (Using the eyelet frame size that fits into the Ornate gateway frame.) Apply the crafting paste to the eyelet frame the same as the card front matting. When all is dry adhere both layers to the card front using double sided 3d foam tape or dots.
Make the sentiment using the coffee ink, stamp and die from the Ornate just for you sets. Ink this with a little yellow water pencil and brush. Put aside.
Make the rest of the elements for the card. 3x Daffodils, 3x the daffodil clusters from the Delightful Daffodil and Butterfly sets, 2x the Hyacinths from the Delightful Daffodil and Hyacinths sets. See the color list in the other products used list. The Daffodils are finished with the gilding wax on the petal edges.
Arrange the flower clusters and Daffodils then adhere in place. Add the sentiment. To finish the card, apply the diamond stickles to the petals and the Just For You on the sentiment.
