To My Favorite Friend Card
For the Front: Use the paper patterns from the package insert to cut the exact shapes to fit your card. To do this, cut out the patterns, trace them with pencil on your chosen paper, then cut out and glue to their corresponding blank panels. Place the flat die cut card vertically with the side step score lines on the left. Fold the die cut card by making a valley fold on the topmost score line and a mountain fold on the next score line; repeat all the way down. When gluing on your paper, use red for the front with a green pattern strip across the bottom, and the same green pattern for the side steps.
Glue the watering can to the right side as shown. Stamp "To My Favorite Friend" on an oval die-cut and "Hi" on the small banner. Glue the banner to the bottom of the red part as shown, and foam tape the oval above and to the right, overlapping a bit. Foam tape a red die-cut flower to the left side of the banner die-cut. Punch out red, orange, and blue flowers with stems. Glue the red to the back step on the left side. Glue the orange to the middle step on the right side, and the green to the front as shown. Take 3 pearl brads and bend each of the prongs back and forth until they break off. Place foam tape on the back of each and apply to the center of each flower. Break the prongs off of a medium green brad and foam tape to the watering can handle.
Inside: Cover the top section with green diamonds and the bottom section with blue floral. Glue the large flower jar to the right side and glue another bunch of flowers overlapping it on the bottom left. Stamp "Just because" on a small die-cut banner and insert a floral brad. Glue overlapping the flowers as shown.
