Instructions:
1. For the card: Cut 5"x6½" Gold Mirri cardstock and 4½"x6" ivory solid cardstock. Glue the ivory cardstock centered on the gold cardstock. Die cut the Wiper card base and the card front from maroon solid cardstock. Die cut the pop-up card from light green solid cardstock. Crease all the scores as directed on the die packaging.
2. Trace and cut the pop-up paper pattern from Poinsettia Passion green textured cardstock and glue it to the pop-up front. Fold the top down, then tie 6" of ivory swirl ribbon onto the pop-up and trim the ends.
3. Cut 4⅝"x4⅛" Poinsettia Passion ivory border cardstock and glue it centered on the largest panel of the card base with the border along the top. Cut ⅞"x4⅛" and 1⅛"x4⅛" Poinsettia Passion ivory border cardstocks and glue them centered on the remaining two card base panels.
