Instructions
- Fold the Night of Navy cardstock in half at the 4-1/4″ score line and burnish well with your Bone Folder. This is a “Valley” fold and will create your base card.
- Fold the Night of Navy cardstock “back” at the 1-1/4″ score line so that it creates a “Mountain” fold and burnish well with your Bone Folder.
- Adhere the 2″ x 5-1/4″ piece of the Regency Park Night of Navy floral design paper onto the top of the front of the card.
- Adhere the Regency Park Balmy Blue dots design paper onto the front flap that is folded up (so that it shows on the outside of the card front.) Use adhesive behind the 1-1/4″ flap so that it’s adhere to the front of the card.
- Adhere the 1-1/2″ piece of Regency Park Night of Navy floral design on the inside of the card, leaving a 1/8″ border along the bottom and sides.
- Adhere the 1-1/2″ piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card so that it butts up against the top edge of the Night of Navy floral paper.
- Using the 1/2″ strip of Basic White cardstock, stamp the sentiment using Night of Navy ink in the middle of the strip and then punch both ends with the Banners Pick A Punch.
- Adhere to the front of the card as shown in the sample using Stampin’ Dimensionals to finish.
