Assembly Instructions:

1. Use bone folder to burnish folds on card base and smaller card.  Adhere pink dsp to card front. Adhere Lagoon dsp to inside of card base. Add smallest white panel to the left side score line, left of the Lagoon dsp. This is where you will sign your card.

2. Stamp Better Together in Lagoon ink on white card stock. Stamp flowers from stamp set on scrap paper (Largest flower Berry Burst, medium Daffodil and smallest in Lagoon. Add shading with Stampin’ Write marker to outside of each flower and leaf by inking with ink pad then adding marker, direct to rubber before stamping Stamp leaf in Smokey Slate. Die cut flowers and leaf using die set. Glue Berry Burst flower down, Add Daffodil using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add dimensionals two high (one on top of other) at top of flower, and only one on bottom where it will overlap the daffodil flower. Tuck leaf under flowers, adhering with Tombo liquid glue.

3. Stamp bottom sentiment in Lost Lagoon in on the bottom left side on White panel. Stamp top sentiment in Berry Burst centering over bottom sentiment. Using the direct to rubber technique use Stampin’ Write markers on stamp with two flowers and leaf. Color Berry Burst first, then Lagoon and Smokey Slate last. Breath (Huff) on stamp to remoisten ink and add to bottom right corner.

4. Add both panels to card remembering that smaller card opens in the opposite direction of larger card.

5. Center smaller card on Lagoon dsp (again so it opens the opposite direction of larger card).

6. Stamp one flower and leaf directly on the envelope on back flap or bottom left side of the front.

I always like to make a sample card using designer papers I don’t particularly like and write all the dimensions on it in case if ever want to do this fold again. I have a small box that I keep all my fun fold card samples in for easy reference.

Thank you to stopping by and be sure to check back as I try to add two new cards a week.
