~Die Cut your Flowers from this Shimmer Paper.
~Cut Three 1/2″ squares to go behind the open Flower Centers. Glue behind the Flower Centers holes.
~Put Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back. Avoid putting them over the small holes.
~Stamp your Words with Night of Navy ink on Basic White cardstock.
~Cut your Words out the large Label Die. You will only be using the center die-cut.
~Add some Embellishment to your Word Label.
~Put Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of your Words Label.
3-Layer & Bows:
~Glue your DSP Print Card Front to your Blueberry Bushel Card Layer.
~Lay out your Flowers and Word Label to help decide where to put your Ribbon. Mine is about 1/2″ from the bottom of the DSP Layer.
~Put your Tear & Tape on your DSP Print where you want your Ribbon. I had about 1/2″ to wrap around the back.
~Decide where you want your Bow to be.
~Start wrapping your Ribbon with at least 6″ at the starting point.
~Wrap around the back and then have your Ribbon meet at where you started.
~Tie a knot with the two ends.
~Put a Glut Dot on the knot.
~Tie Your Bow. You will need an extra Glue Dot or so to hold your Bow in place. This Ribbon was extra slippery.
~Glue your Card Front to your Card Base.
~If desired, add some Embellishments to your Card Front.
4-Card Inside + Optional Gift Card Holder.
~Decide which side you want your Card Insert on and your Optional Gift Card Holder.
~Glue the 1/2″ Card Insert Strip to one side of your Basic White Card Insert.
~Glue your Card Insert inside your Card.
Optional Gift Card Holder: This can go on either side if you want.
~Glue your Gift Card Pocket DSP to your Gift Card Pocket.
~While holding your Gift Card, determine where to put the Tear and Tape. The Roblox Card is large.
I put Tear & Tape on one side and the bottom. Leave at least 1/2″ on both sides of your Gift Card when placing your Tear & Tape. Gift Cards are thick and need the room.
~Attach your Gift Card Pocket to the edge of your Card.
Your Fragrant Layers with Shiny Flowers Birthday Card is finished.
