How to make

Step-1

Start with two 6 x 6” white card blanks. Cut one side of each card down to 7cm wide.

Step-2

Lay one larger side on top of the other fixing in place with double sided tape creating a gatefold.

Step-3

Cover the front of each 7cm flap with plain pink cardstock off-cuts from your stash, then layer a panel of slightly smaller patterned paper on top.

Step-4

Fussy-cut or die cut two heart shapes, one in plain cardstock and another in patterned paper gluing the two together for added stability.

Step-5

Adhere small white paper flowers around the edge of the heart along with a pink butterfly using tacky glue.

Step-6

Attach the heart to the left front flap only so that the card can still be opened.

Step-7

Take the MUM stickers from the sheet and stick them onto a piece of scrap cardstock. Fussy-cut around the edge of each letter; doing this will add extra stability. Fix each of the letters to the centre of the heart using 3d foam pads.

Step-8

Adhere a sentiment sticker underneath the MUM greeting, along with a few more of the butterfly toppers. To complete the design, as a sprinkling of pink pearls.
