Good Life Tri-Fold Surprise Card

Instructions:

1. For the card & front: Die cut the card from white cardstock, then use the bone folder to crease the scores as described on the die package. Turn the card so it opens when you pull up on the left side.

2. Trace and cut the front paper pattern from yellow marble paper. Die cut the blue persuasion tiles from black cardstock, then cut one tile off the end. Use Sticky Specks™ to attach the tiles to the marble paper near the left edge. Wrap two strands of natural jute over the paper, ¾" from the left edge, and glue the ends to the back. Glue the paper centered on the card front.

3. Construct the “so many reasons to celebrate” papier tole design with foam tape between the layers, then foam tape it to the front as shown. Hold two natural jute strands together and tie a shoestring bow. Trim the ends, then glue it to the first jute, just above the tole design.

4. For the inside: Cut 2⅛"x2⅞" yellow marble paper and glue it centered on the lower middle panel. Cut 2⅛"x1⅞" green paper and glue it centered on the upper middle panel. Trace and cut the inside paper pattern from green paper and glue it centered on the inside back panel.

5. Foam tape piece #3 of the “live well…” papier tole design to piece #2, then glue it to the inside as shown. Place black “happy birthday” Dazzles™ below the tole design and foam tape the star extra art to the left of the tole design. Glue the tile cut from the die-cut in step 2 to the lower middle panel, turned on point.
