Beauty is Everywhere Card

Front: Place your card with the fold on the left. Cover the card front with Emma’s Garden brown pattern paper and set aside. Cut a piece of acetate to 6"x6 1/2". Score along the left side, 1" from the left. Place the stencil over the acetate, so the butterflies are about 1/4" from the right edge. Secure the stencil with stencil tape. Mask the area to the left of the score line with stencil tape (this area will be folded over to the back of the card). Open your jars of Lavender and Crystal Mint stencil paint. Have paper towels handy. Use the mini squeegee to scoop up some Lavender stencil paint and scrape it across the stencil, trying to keep it in the center mannequin figure. Scrape some over the greeting and butterflies as shown. Immediately wipe off the squeegee. Scoop up some Crystal Mint stencil paint and cover the remaining empty areas of the stencil. It's ok if the two colors overlap or mix a little. Carefully lift up the stencil and set the image aside. Immediately rinse off the stencil under running water and pat dry with paper towels.

Place the stencil on Emma’s Garden green tiny floral paper and trace the outline of just the dress form. Cut this out. Trace the outline of the wings on Emma’s Garden ivory/green pattern and cut out. Place the acetate piece over the card with the right and bottom edges lined up. Align the wings and dress under the stenciled image and glue to the brown card accordingly. Fold along the score lines of the acetate. Place Zips™ along the 1" back flap of the acetate. Place the acetate on top of the card, folding and adhering the back flap to the back of the card.

Inside: Glue 5"x1 1/2" of green tiny floral across the bottom of the card. Stencil a rose in the upper right corner with Lavender and Crystal Mint stencil paint using the same process as you did on the front. Let dry completely.
