The ready side-fold card measures, 6″ by 8″. Cut a smooth white cardstock measuring 12″ by 8″ and score it at 6″ on the longer side. Crease and score it well using a bone folder.

Choose a pattern paper from the designer paper collection and cut measuring 5 1/2″ by 7 1/2″. Mat it on the white cardstock creating a delicate white border of 1/16″ on all sides. Layer the panel on the card base using foam dots. 

Cut one shadow from white cardstock, and 2 pieces of die-cuts from smooth white cardstock using Fancy Classic Rectangle Frame Die. Stack and glue both die-cut frames together. Next, glue the frames on the ready card panel as shown. Next, choose the paper from the designer’s paper collection and cut the second solid panel. Layer it using foam dots on the card front.  Cut the smaller fancy frame in white and gold cardstock and glue them together keeping the gold one on the top. 

For Hollyhock flowers, stamp a couple of medium and small flowers using Tea Rose on flower shaping paper and cut the flowers using its coordinating dies. Color the flowers using the same ink and add highlights using Red Geranium archival ink. Shape the flower using its coordinating mold and then add a few more strokes using the flower shaping kit. Once done, press the centers and add glitter balls. Finally, brush a thin layer of crystal lacquer on the flowers and keep them from drying.

Stamp, color and cut the foliage fromHollyhock Stem & Blooms Cling Stamp Set and color them using Leaf Green and highlight them using Olive green. 

Once all the elements are ready, assemble the card as shown and complete it by adding a sentiment from Celebrate Love Sentiment Cling Stamp Set.
