Instructions:
- Blackberry Bliss Cardbase: fold on score line and burnish with a bone folder.
- Adhere 4" x 5 1/4" piece of DSP to 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" Petal Pink Cardstock. Adhere this matt to the front of the card.
- Adhere the 2 pieces 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" to the inside of cardbase. Set the cardbase aside for now.
Z-Fold (inside):
- With a ruler mark 2" from the top of the right side of the 4 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of cardstock. With the paper trimmer cut this piece from the 2" mark to the top left hand corner of the Z-Fold piece.
- Fold the Z-Fold piece on the score lines to form a valley fold, mountain fold and a valley fold.
- Lay the Z-Fold piece flat and place the 2" x 4 3/8" piece of DSP of the first section of this piece leaving a small border on the bottom and 2 sides of this section. With a pencil make a small mark on each side of the DSP at the top so there is the same size boarder on the top edge of the first section. Use the paper trimmer to cut the piece of DSP on a angle between the 2 pencil marks. Adhere the DSP to the first section of the Z-Fold piece. Repeat this procedure for the other 2 pieces of DSP and the piece of Basic White Cardstock.
- Adhere the small end of the Z-Fold piece with the right edge of the cardbase making sure they are lined up and square to each other.
- Place adhesive on the large end of the Z-Fold piece and adhere it to the left edge of the cardbase making sure they are lined up and square to each other as well. DO NOT ADHERE THE TWO CENTRE PIECES TO THE CARDBASE.
Focal point for the card front:
- On the Basic White Cardstock cut out with the Scalloped Contour Die Stamp floral image with Color & Contour Stamp Set using Old Olive Ink and Blackberry Bliss Ink (stamp off the floral image). Stamp greeting with Tuxedo Memento Black Ink. Adhere the stamped piece to the 2 5/8" x 3 7/8" Petal Pink matt.
- Colour 3 Pearls with the Dark Blackberry Bliss Blend and adhere them to the front of the matt.
- Wrap the 1" x 8 1/2" piece of cardstock around the card and adhere the stamped matt to create a belly band.
