Instructions:
Score and fold card base.
Take the front layer piece and run it through with the embossing folder from the Softly Sophisticated bundle (or use your folder of choice).
Attach the embossed panel to the front of the card.
Take the 3 strips of DSP and punch the ends of each of the strips. Turn the punch upside down and ensure that the end of the strip is up against the edge of the punch. TIP - you can also skip punching the ends and just use the strips as they are.
Starting with the design you want to be in the middle, measure down approximately 1" from the top of the card and adhere the strip in place on the card front. NOTE - if the embossing folder you are using has a lot of texture, you may want to use liquid glue to make sure the strips adhere adequately.
Add the remaining 2 strips to the card front.
Attach the gold strip over the 3 DSP panels.
Stamp your sentiment onto the Basic White die cut using Pecan Pie ink. Attach this over the gold strip using dimensionals.
Tie a bow with your Gold trip and attach to the die-cut sentiment using a glue dot.
Add your embellishments to the card front.
Stamp the image of your choice inside the card and on the envelope front using Pecan Pie ink.
Your card is finished!
