Instructions
Cut two Grand Square #6 from white cardstock and emboss both peices keeping one for later
Hand cut a silver layer to fit in between these two layers to form the base.
Mat and layer the embossed white and silver card together
Cut and Emboss the entire Imperial Square die set with white card stock
Using foam tape layer this with a slightly larger piece of silver card
From the four smallest dies cut each one four times in silver
Then onto the silver and white embossed layers add the four largest ones into each of the corners
Next take your silver and filigree layer and add it to this panels making sure it is centred and level
With the four smaller corners add them to a white centre shape securing with glue on the back.
Add this panel to the card front with foam tape for dimension.
Wrap all these layers with white ribbon and they can now be added to the base layer and the ribbon workings will be hidden in between these layer.
Cut Congratulations from Sentiments One and add it to white card
Using the centre part of the Imperial Square die set cut the word panel and then trim to fit the centre of your card.
Take the second piece of white embossed card and add it to the inside of the card to line it
I have also cut another Imperial Square and trimmed it down to fit as a pocket inside the card
Glue three sides leaving the top part open and into this slip a label shape that can be used as a greeting or for your signature.
When you are adding words to your label a good tip is to use a ruler and the grid lines on your cutting mat to help you get them straight and line them up equally on either side of your card
And here is a second card using the same die in another way and this will be featured in a later post complete with instructions on how to make it
