instructions

 

Fold the A4 cream card in half.

Take the Hand made potpourri paper and measure and mark a rectangular strip 21cm long by 12cm wide.  Using scissors cut out your shape, and then tear down each length of the strip to create an uneven look.  With PVA glue stick your strip into the centre of the folded A4 card and leave to dry. 

Take two of the burgundy die cut hearts and place the back one slightly higher than the front one to create a layered effect.  Push one of the Prym gold coloured decorative rivets with nail through the back of both hearts and press the front into place as per manufacturers’ instructions.  Repeat this process again to create a second pair of hearts.

Using PVA glue stick the first pair of hearts into position on the strip of potpourri paper, about 3cm from the top of the card.  Repeat this process with the second pair of hearts but this time place them towards the bottom right corner of the card, again on the potpourri strip.

Take the three pink butterfly die-cuts and line up one on top of the other.  Push the decorative rivet with rhinestone through the front centre of all three butterflies, closing the back as per manufacturer’s instructions.  Using PVA glue, stick the butterflies into position on your card between the two heats.  

Take the red mulberry paper string and cut four 7cm lengths and one 10cm length of string.  Using the 10cm length tie a knot around the top of all four 7cm lengths to form a tassel, trim the excess string and glue tassel into place on the top left hand corner of the card. 

Take the red paper and the Fiskars flower hand punch and punch out 3 flower shapes, using PVA Glue stick these onto your card at various positions.

Leaving flat, allow the greeting card to dry.
