STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS

  • Fold your card base. On the short panel, to the left, adhere the layer of Daffodil Delight cardstock and the layer of DSP with the strawberry texture design.

  • Take the Classic Label punch, push it as far as it will go and line it up with the Daffodil Delight layer. Punch. Repeat the operation with the bottom Daffodil Delight layer and punch again. You now have your space to insert the buckle.

  • Work the inside. Adhere the Daffodil Delight folded layer to the Basic white piece. Remember the fold of the Daffodil Delight will be to the right, which seems counter-intuitive.

  • Decorate your white layers. Stamp your greeting on the bottom left of the top layer. Use the two-step stamping technique to create texture in your leaves and strawberries. Make sure you leave some white on the left side because you will be inserting this part into the buckle.

  • Punch out two strawberries from the DSP (same poppy parade and yellow pattern). Punch out two stems. Adhere the stems to the DSP and use Stampin Dimensionals to adhere to the top of your card.

  • Time to put it all together. Add the white stamped layers to the Daffodil Delight - remember - right side fold. Add the completed piece to the card base, leaving equal space on both sides.

  • Add the Daffodil Delight ribbon to the left panel and tie a pretty bow.

A few tips when you make this card …

The buckle opening is wider than the punch, so alignment is important. Make sure you push the punch as far as it will go. Line it up to the yellow layer and punch. Move to the other side and punch.

 

Stamp to the right of the white layer, because the left side will be inserted in the buckle.

Don’t forget your fold is on the right side because this will be inserted to the buckle.

 

Almost there… Before you stick it down, line it up with the opening, to ensure that you are far enough to slip it through.

Tie the Daffodil Delight ribbon around the base of the card and tie it in a pretty bow.
