Instructions:
- Place the large Basic White CS to the inside of the card by folding it in half and laying the fold towards the crease of the Pool Party base without touching the fold line making sure it is centered.
- Add Seal to the Basic White CS side facing up, close the card base to secure and rub gently. Repeat this process for the other side.
- Using your Blackberry Ink and sentiment from the Hand-penned stamp set, stamp your sentiment towards the top center.
- Add your Frayed Ribbon (I cut mine in half lengthwise) to the front mat DSP using your adhesive to adhere then attach to the card front.
- Stamp your sentiment on the small Basic White using Blackberry Bliss ink. Stamp two of the leaf images using Crushed Curry ink.
- Adhere the above to Blackberry Bliss cardstock using your multipurpose glue. Attach to top center using Dimensionals.
- Fold your DSP (pop up mechanism) using your Bone Folder to create the shape of a box. Using the smallest rectangle die, run through the die cutting machine on the top of the “box” (2″ or 5cm piece).
- Place Tear & Tape on the first 1 1/2” or 4cm strip and attach to the center edge of fold without touching crease.
- Flatten DSP towards bottom of card, add Seal Adhesive to second 1 1/2″ or 4cm strip and fold card to adhere.
- Add Seal to the bottom of the DSP (1/2″ or 1cm strip) lining it to the edge of 1” strip on bottom and adhere.
- Fold card to see box pop up.
- Add a small amount of tissue to the box so it shows through the opening.
- Add a few Pastel Pearls to front sentiment. Your card is now complete.
