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.
