How beautiful is this laser-cut card ! The best part is that it comes in a lovely decorated tin, and you have 12 to a set, with nice scalloped envelopes to match. Since it is the Bird Ballad Collection, it gave me an opportunity to use my favorite set of the catalogue, Free as a bird, to add a custom touch to my card. Easy to make, easy to send and sure to please.

How to

STEP 1: Insert the Soft Suede carstock behind the laser-cut front of the card. Apply a very thin line of glue on the inside of the lacy part. Fold and let dry.

STEP 2: Stamp the birds and colour with the Blends markers. While you have the stamps, stamp your envelope.

STEP 3: Punch out the birds to keep the part of the image you like.

STEP 4: Apply the ribbon to the center of the lace front of the card. To cut the little flag type ends, fold the ribbon in two on the width and cut from the inside out to the end. Use Snail or Tear and Tape to stick your ribbon to the card front.

STEP 5: Adhere the bird image circle to the Soft Suede (brown) piece.

STEP 6: Use Dimensionals to apply the circle to the centre of the card
