Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1 – Prepare the Card Base

Cut a 5.5″ x 11″ piece of Stardream Metallic Sapphire cardstock and score at 5.5″ to create a square top-fold card.

Step 2 – Cut the Background Layer

Using your ornate background die, cut a decorative panel from Stardream Metallic Vista cardstock. Adhere it to a slightly larger piece of Silver Bright Foil 10 pt Cardstock which peeks through the die-cut openings.

Step 3 – Die Cut sentiment & label

Die-cut the “With Love” sentiment from Stardream Metallic Sapphire cardstock. The ornate label is cut from Silver Bright Foil 10 pt Cardstock.

Step 4 – Add Ribbon

Wrap sheer navy ribbon around the top portion of the card.

Step 5 – Assemble the Card

Attach the decorated panel to the card base using double-sided tape.

Adhere the sentiment to the center of the ornate panel using foam adhesive for a raised effect.

Make a bow with the sheer navy ribbon. Add the bow to the top of the card. Small blue rhinestones add a pop of sparkle to the design.
