Instructions

1. To create the base of the card: cut the card base and score using the measurements above. Center the 2” Black strip along the bottom of the card base (this is the “inside” of the card) and adhere. The flaps on the black strip slightly hang over the left and the right of the card base.
2. Stamp sentiments on the Whisper White piece for the inside of the card using Memento and Melon Mambo ink. Adhere to the inside of the card (this will hide the black strip that’s along the bottom).
3. Stamp “Thanks for Being You” sentiment in Memento ink on Whisper White card stock. Cut out using the 4^th from the largest Framelit in the Lots of Labels set. Using Crushed Curry card stock, cut out the next size larger Framelit to create a mat.
4. Color in the “Thanks for Being You” sentiment using the Melon Mambo marker. Add Melon Mambo Candy Dots to the top and bottom of the piece and adhere to Crushed Curry piece using Stampin’ Dimensionals. NOTE: When adding this piece to the front of the card, only put adhesive on the top of the Crushed Curry piece.
5. Assemble and adhere pieces together following the pictures. Be sure to add the Baker’s Twine to the top piece before adhering to the black card base.
