Instructions (Print version)

  1. Create a 6” x 5 ½” card from purple cardstock with the fold at the top.

  3. Highlight the embossing with purple chalk. 
  4. Cut a 1 ¼” wide strip of white cardstock and adhere across lower part of card.
  5. Cut a 1” wide strip of lavender cardstock and adhere to center of white strip.
  6. Use the 3-in-1 Corner Punch to punch out flowers from white cardstock.
  7. Randomly glue the flowers to the lavender strip and at the top of each scallop.
  8. Glue a small purple bead in the center of each flower. 
  9. Ink a metal eyelet letter with Versamark ink and heat emboss with purple embossing powder.
  10. Thread a white sheer ribbon through the letter and knot. 
  11. Wrap ribbon around the top of the card.
  12. Place two purple buttons on front of card (one on middle scallop and one just below) on foam mounting tape and wrap string around them several times and tie a bow.  Make this look like a faux flap that would open.

 

Option:  Use same design but change colors and use different small punches.  Instead of a metal monogram use a charm or a bow or a chipboard monogram.
