Happy Birthday Card
Place your Side Step card with the main card folds at the top. Place the Front Side pattern on the bottom left corner of the brown/ivory text paper and lightly glue one corner in place above the cutting line. Cut out the shape through the pattern and brown/ivory text paper. Glue the burgundy grosgrain ribbon across the shape, 1/8” from the bottom. Mat onto burgundy patterned paper with 1/16” borders. Glue centered on the left side of the card front.
Use the Front Riser pattern to cut out the shape from burgundy patterned paper. Use the brown/ivory text paper for the Back Riser and Inside pattern shapes. Glue the burgundy Front Riser on the card. Glue burgundy ribbon across the Back Riser piece, 5/8” from the bottom, trimming the sides evenly. Glue in place on the card.
Place the Double-Stick Dazzles™ large leaves, acorns, and swirl on the front of the card as shown. Place the smaller leaves on the burgundy front riser. Press the card out flat on your work surface. Take a piece (or pieces) of Gold Metal Leaf and place it over the top double-stick leaf on the card, making sure to cover it completely. Use the cosmetic sponge to gently smooth the Gold Metallic Leaf in place and remove the excess from the inside openings and outer edges of the double-stick leaf. Tap off the excess onto scrap paper. Repeat for the remaining leaves, acorns, and swirl on the card front.
Place Dazzles™ “Happy Birthday” on the ribbon near the swirl. Add “Make a WISH” on the upper right side of the front riser. Tie a burgundy ribbon and Zot™ on the lower left portion of the card.
Glue burgundy ribbon across the inside paper piece, 1 1/4" from the bottom. Trim the sides evenly with the paper. Glue centered on the inside of the card. Trace the Design Tool Label A shape onto burgundy patterned paper. Cut out the shape and place Double-Stick
Dazzles™ small leaves and swirl on the ends of the label. Add the Gold Metal Leaf to the leaves and swirl as for the front. Glue the label centered on the ribbon. Place Dazzles™ “Celebrate!” centered on the label.
