Instructions




Cut your white card base 12" x 12", fold in half and use a bone folder for a cleaner line. Trim the front right-hand side down by 1 ½” so that the front flap is 4 ½ “. Cut your desired mats from your Oakberry Paper Collection to 5 ¾” x 5 ¾”, one front mat and one contrasting mat for the insert, trim of a ¼” strip from the right-hand side from the front mat. Adhere your front mat. Adhere you insert mat and then adhere you strip to the right hand inside so that it lines up with your front mat.


Using your Album tags and Accents Die, die cut one purple eyelet background mat using the same cardstock as your insert, and cut 1 white matching die cut for your sentiment. Stamp with your “hope your day is as special as you are” sentiment using Memento Espresso Truffle.  Adhere together using 3d dots.
Using your Oakberry Lane Blossoms stamp set, stamp your flowers using Memento Grape Jelly Ink and color with Brilliance Pearlescent Lavender, highlight the edges with the grape jelly ink, shape in your 3D Mold and add desired white wired stamens to the flower centers. Leave the wire attached and curl your wire. To curl wire wrap around a skewer or similar sized object and slide of to create the spiraled wire. I have used 3 flowers for the main flower and 2 flowers for the smaller flowers.

Using your Oakberry Lane Stamp set, stamp your leaves using Memento Espresso Truffle and color using Peeled Paint ink, die cut with coordinating die and highlight edges with Distress Aged Mahogany Ink.


Using your ornamental tags die set, cut the flourish tag and trim of the solid section so you are left with the flourish.


Assemble your card – Adhere your decorative sentiment mat flat on the front of your card so that it is hanging over the right-hand side. Line up the flourish and adhere to the insert on the outer edge on the matching floral strip so as it looks part of your sentiment mat. Adhere your flowers and leaves and arrange your curled wires. Tie a bow and place at the top of your sentiment. Decorate with stickles as desired.

Versacolor Ink – White
Distress
Peeled Paint Ink
Anti static Pad
Ranger Embossing Powder – White
White Cardstock
Diamond Stickles
White Button
Acetate



TIP:  Use an antistatic pad to wipe your vellum and cardstock first before stamping, it creates a static free environment so that only your stamped image is embossed.  When using a heat gun, don’t get too close to your cardstock or it will get a brown tinge. 

Using the Butterfly Kisses stamp set, stamp the butterfly on white cardstock using your White Versacolor Ink, then cover completely in white embossing powder, shake of the excess and heat with your heat gun.  Repeat with one on vellum. I have colored these images using Broken China.  Color the cardstock butterfly on the front and the vellum butterfly on the back. Cut with coordinating die. Cut a strip of acetate approximately 1cm wide and adhere to the back of the vellum butterfly up to the head, leaving the flourishes free. Do not bend the top of the acetate like you will with the flower.
Using your Buttons and Blooms stamp, stamp the medium size flower in teal zeal, morocco, lilac posies and buttercup, lightly shade with the matching color and die cut with coordinating die. Shape with your deluxe flower shaping kit. 
Using your leafy accents stamp, stamp your double and triple leaves using your peeled paint ink and color with same ink. Die cut with coordinating dies and shape in the 3D shaping mold.
Cut 4 strips of acetate approx. 1cm wide, you can cut the length when assembling the card. Bend the top of your acetate over about 1cm wot make a stand. Adhere 2 leaves, you may need to cut into singles and 1 flower to the front of each acetate strip and allow to dry. On the yellow flower adhere 1 white button.
Using your Patchwork Pockets stamp, stamp the pocket once each with bamboo leaves, lilac posies and buttercup, shade your pockets as pictured. Die cut with coordinating die. 
Using your Hand stitched Accents stamp, stamp your "Birthday for you" stamp in Teal Zeal, die cut with coordinating die. Trim this into 2 pieces, the for you section and the birthday section. Color the leaves with bamboo leaves. 
Cut 1 acetate strip 1cm and fold the top at the 1cm mark as you did with the flowers. This will be the ramp for your banner.
Using your Buttons and Blooms Paper Pad cut the background mat 6" x 6". Cut your white card base 12" x 6" and using a bone folder for a cleaner line fold in half.

Card Assembly


Adhere your front patterned mat. Adhere your vellum butterfly to the top left so as the top of the butterfly is coming out the top. Using your acetate ramp adhere to the right side of the card so it sits approx. 2 cm below the card top.  Adhere 3 flowers to the back of your yellow pocket (play around with the placement so it will sit on your card nicely, you may need to trim the bottom of your acetate strips so they are not hanging out. Adhere your birthday flourish to the back of the pocket so it sits as pictured. Line up your yellow pocket up on your card front for measurement purposes only do not glue in place and work out where your banner will sit best and adhere it over your ramp so it is floating in the air. Using 3d dots adhere your first pink pocket remembering that this is below the yellow level and the flowers will need room.  Using 3d adhesive now adhere your yellow pocket over the top of the pink pocket. Adhere your center flower to the back of the green pocket so that it fills your bunch and using 3d dots adhere your last pocket. Trim the top flourish of your cardstock butterfly and adhere with glue only in the center of your butterfly so you can bend up his wings. Using glue only on the right side adhere you’re for your mat and bend it up like a tag. Decorate with stickles as desired.

Instructions

Die cut 2 of your Festive Holiday Decorative dies using white cardstock. TIP:  when stamping with Pigment ink you will have to let it dry or set with a heat gun before die cutting and coloring to avoid smudging.  Using your Peony Bud and Blossom stamp set, stamp your small peony 4 times layered 3d effect.

Cut your card base using the white linen cardstock 8 5/8” x 5 1/2”. Fold your card in half, I like to run a bone folder over the spine of the card to give it a clean finish. Trim the selected cardstock from the Sweet Peony Collection. Using your circle dies, cut the circle center out of your patterned mat and using the next size up cut a white circle.

Now you have all your elements done, you can complete your card. Adhere your patterned mat. Adhere your white Festive Holiday die cuts to the top and bottom of your card. Adhere you first layer of peonies, using 3d adhesive adhere your white circle, then using 3d adhesive adhere your patterned circle. On the top peony tie a bow and adhere in the center. On the bottom peony I have fussy cut two layers to adhere over the top. Use 3d adhesive between each layer. Using 3d adhesive adhere your “Life’s Beautiful Moments” sentiment. Decorate with stickles as desired. I like to highlight the stamped flowers and the leaves and baby’s breath on the patterned picture.

Happy Crafting
