Instructions: The ready side fold card measures, 61/2″ by 7″. For creating top panel you will need 3 layers. The topmost layer is from designer paper collection and measures, 6″ by 6.1/2″ All the edges are distressed with scissors and then layered on a white cardstock with a margin of 1/16″ on all the sides. This is further layered on a dark green pattern paper 1/4″ larger than the ready top panel.

Shadow Box: Follow, Emma’s video to create a shadow box. Choose the designer paper from the collection for the inside of the shadow box. Tape down the shadow box and cover all the sides. Cut a frame from white cardstock, Eyelet Oval & Basics Small Die. Also cut a white die cut from Window Box Elements Die and adhere it on the top and bottom edge of the oval frame from the backside of the frame.

Stamp 2-3 images from Backyard Blossoms Cling Stamp Set and Garden’s Edge Coneflower Cling Stamp Set on white cardstock and cut them using their coordinating dies.

Shape the petals using needle tool or on the back of a thin pencil. Cut the petals in half and layer them together to create a half flower. Now glue these flowers on the already painted colored coneflowers and trim extra stamped image that is hanging out. Add a glossy accent to the cone center and add black color prills.Dust extras and set them aside for drying.

For Butterfly: Butterflies from Butterfly Dream Collection and Butterfly Medley Collection were white heat embossed the same way as flowers and then added little colors with distress oxides.

Cut 2 tags from the paper collection and mat them on the white cardstock. Make a hole with the help of crop a dile and add Papericious natural twine. Adhere these tags on the right side of the card under the shadow box. and Once all the elements are ready, assemble the card as shown.
