Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Fold the Gray Granite cardstock in half at the score line to create your card base.
- (Optional) Adhere the 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Basic White cardstock inside your card.
- Cut 6″ of the Basic Beige Bordered Ribbon and adhere to the left side of the Cherry Cobbler Cardstock. (I use scotch tape to adhere the ends to the back of the Cherry Cobbler Cardstock.)
- Cut 18″ of Garden Green Linen Thread and fold in half. Tie around the top of the Basic Beige Ribbon and trim ends as needed. Adhere the Cherry Cobbler cardstock to the front of the card.
- Using your 1-3/4″ Circle Punch, punch out 3 of the bird images from the Nests of Winter paper. Punch 3 of the other Nests of Winter paper pattern using the same punch. Adhere to the front of the card as shown in the sample.
- Stamp the sentiment using Black Memento ink onto the 3″ square of Gray Granite cardstock. Punch out the sentiment using the 2″ Circle Punch. Adhere to the front of the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals to finish.
