BASE CARD

MAT

Cut a piece of light blue card stock measuring 4" x 6". Punch one of the short ends using the border punch. Use a piece of vanilla card stock cut to 3 3/4" x 5 1/4", and stamp the word background using the brown ink. Mount this onto the blue mat.

Tie a double-loop bow using brown ribbon, and slide on a strip that will wrap around the mat. Use a glue dot to mount the bow on the right of the mat, and tape the ends of the strip on the back of the mat. Mount the mat onto the front of the card.

SENTIMENT

Cut/emboss a small Fleur De Lis square using vanilla card stock. with the die cut still in the die, stamp the sentiment in the middle using brown ink. Sponge brown ink around the sentiment. Remove the die cut from the die, and mount using foam squares.
