Remove backing
off adhesive. Fold card over to adhere edges of the card together.

Open out your
card and it should now look like this.
1.
Set aside. Grab
the 2 pieces of Real Red that you had scored earlier. Fold in a ‘Z’ pattern
1.
Use sticky strip
on one of the longer edges. This will be used to stick on the ribbon. Use scor-tape or other adhesive on the outside
edges on opposite sides.
1.
Add the ribbon to
the top edge removing the sticky strip backing
1.
Remove the backing
off the Scor-Tape one piece of cardstock at a time. Stick one side in first and
then the other starting at either the one at the back or front. It doesn’t really
matter. Your box should now look like this.
1.
Punch out heart.
Use piercing template for piercing the inside edge or freehand.
Set
aside.
1.
Take your piece
of Coastal Cabana and slide into Tag Punch. It’s going to be narrower than the
punch. Center and hold with finger while you punch.
1.
Using this stamp
from the ‘Yipee Skippee’ set, use markers to paint stamp and stamp onto the
small Whisper White rectangle

Add tape or
adhesive to back of tag

And adhere to

Colour stamp from
set ‘Love you More’ with markers. Stamp onto White Cardstock. Don’t forget to
huff on it before you stamp the image just in case some of the ink has dried
before you are ready to stamp ;)
2.
Put some adhesive
behind the birds feet and stick to front of the front divider.
1.
Use markers again to colour in stamp and stamp
on bottom lower right or where ever else you wish.
2.
Adhere to the back of your card.
You are done!
Card will fold flat for mailing in an A2
envelope which is one of the best things of this card I think!
