Gratitude card
Turn the card so the fold is at the top. Cover the card front with green burlap paper, trimming the edges evenly with the card. Place the dark purple paper on your cutting mat, then place the round template over your paper. Remove the triangular insert on the underside of the cutter. Grip the wheel and turn to select the pinking blade, then line up the grooves on the underside of the cutter with the grooves in the round template. The cutting blade will be about 1" from the edge of the template. Hold down the template and press down with your index finger on the cutter, following the edge of the template to create a half-circle. Glue the curved edge to the card front, about 1/2" from the bottom. Trim excess from the sides and top.
Glue a 6 1/2" x 2 3/4" light green circles rectangle even with the fold. Use the pinking blade and the straight-edge cutting guide to create a 3/4" dark purple strip with pinked edges on both sides. Glue across the card, 5/8" from the top. Glue checked ribbon across the center of the purple strip. Zot a ribbon knot 2" from the left side. Zot a small green flower and purple brad over the knot. Glue the "gratitude" square centered on the light purple tag. Cut a pinked edge on a small strip of green burlap paper and glue to the end for a tab. Add a purple brad and glue centered over the card front, 1" from the bottom. Zot a mini green flower and purple mini brad to lower right corner of tag.
Inside the card: Glue a 2" x 5" rectangle even with the left edge on the inside. Glue light green circles paper over the right side. Use the pinking blade on the cutter to cut a 2" x 5" purple rectangle and glue over the seam of the two papers. Write or computer print a greeting on a tag. Glue knotted ribbon across the bottom, then add purple brad to the top. Glue tag centered on the inside as shown.
