Instructions
1. Glue 45cm ribbon across the base card approximately 8cm
from the bottom.
2. With the DSP horizontally in front of you, measure 5cm down
from top left corner and 10cm across and mark between those points. Using the
paper trimmer or scissors cut off the corner along the line. Repeat on right
hand side.
3. Fold the DSP along the score lines, using the picture for
guidance, forming a centrally opening ‘gate’.
4. Adhere the white panel inside the DSP then adhere the whole
thing to the base card on top of the ribbon, with the ribbon extending out on
either side.
5. Stamp sentiment onto white scrap and punch out using
rectangular postage stamp punch.
6. Punch out stem shapes using Symmetrical Stems border punch.
7. Adhere sentiment on ONE side of the DSP so it can open.
Adhere stems to decorate.
8. Close card and tie bow using ribbon. To stand the card up simply remove the ribbon and open up the sides.
