Frosted Flowers Sending Hugs Card

Instructions:

1. For the card front: Place the card with the fold at the top. Cut 6"x4½" Frosted Flowers maroon border cardstock with flowers along the bottom and mat it on solid maroon cardstock with ⅛" borders. Knot one end each of two 6" glimmer ribbons. Glue the ribbons near the lower edge of the cardstock, extending 4½" and 5½" from the left edge. Wrap the left ends to the back and glue them in place. Glue the cardstock centered on the card front.

2. Remove the chipboard solid flowers, leaf sprigs and berry sprigs from the backing. Press the Vintage Rose ink pad over the flowers to completely cover them with ink. Ink just the edges of the flowers with the Earth Red ink pad. Ink the leaves and the berry stems with Lily Pad, using the paintbrush where needed. Let all the chipboard dry.

3. Cover the inked chipboard with glue, then press the pieces into the glitter. Let the chipboard dry, then glue the pieces to the front as shown. Place silver “sending hugs” and a heart Dazzles™ at the upper right as shown.

4. For the inside: Cut 6"x3½" Frosted Flowers blue border cardstock with poinsettias at the top. Mat it on light green cardstock with ⅛" borders. Wrap glimmer ribbon across it at the top, gluing the ends to the back. Glue the cardstock to the inside near the card’s fold. Ink and glitter the chipboard rosebud as for the flowers on the front. Glue the “keeping you in my thoughts” cutout and the rose as shown.
