For the card front: Trim the card to 5"x5" and turn with the fold at the top. Cut 2 7/8"x1¾" Floral green dotted paper, 2 7/8"x2 7/8" Floral blue floral paper, and 4¾"x1¾" Floral blue striped paper. Wrap white ribbon across the striped paper, ¼" from the bottom and glue the ends to the back. Glue green fiber over the ribbon near the lower edge and glue the ends to the back. Glue the three papers to the front, spaced evenly as shown.
Fold the sheer pocket bottom under to square off the bottom, then glue the pocket to the card, 3/8" from the left edge, tucking it under the ribbon. Place a 1¾" Dazzles™ butterfly on Floral green dotted paper and cut out. Glue over the pocket’s right edge and place a pearl on the body as shown. Fold a 7½" ribbon to stack a 1¼" loop on a 1¾" loop, and both loops on a 2" tail. Tie with thread to secure, then glue next to the pocket.
Thread green fiber through a blue flower button, and tie fiber onto a 1" green button. Secure both buttons as shown with tape. Cut out the 3¾" Floral green tag and stamp “know that you are loved” toward the upper right. Place Dazzles™ flowers and small butterflies as shown. Fold a 4" white ribbon and glue to the tag, then attach an ivory mini Brad Buddy™ over it. Mat the tag on white cardstock with 1/16" borders, then place pearls on the tag as shown. Tuck the tag into the pocket.
For the inside: Cover the inside with Floral tan swirls paper. Cut 1¾"x5" Floral blue floral paper and mat the right long edge on Floral blue striped paper with a 3/8" border. Glue to the inside, aligning the left edges. Cut ¾"x5" Floral green dotted paper and glue along the left edge. Cut out the 4" tan tag and stamp “sending happy thoughts” near the bottom. Place Dazzles™ flowers and butterflies as shown, then insert a green flower brad in the tag. Glue to the inside and place the pearls as shown.
