Create a C6 card base from Calypso coral cardstock, by cutting a piece of A4 cardstock in half lengthwise (14.9cm) and then scoring it down the centre at 10.5cm. Use the round medallion die from the "Chase Your Dreams" die set to cut four patterned circles into a piece of 14.4cm x 10cm grapefruit grove cardstock. Stick this to the card base.
To create the "black ice" image, take a piece of 4" x 3" grapefruit grove foil, Holding the Stayzon ink pad very lightly, pull it down the front of the foil to just give a faint streaking effect. Turn the card 180 degrees and repeat. Stamp the dreamcatcher image from the "Follow Your Dreams" stamp set onto the foil. Using a Versamark pad, repeat the "streaking" technique, by lightly pulling the pad down the foil. Sprinkle on clear embossing powder and heat. You should have a textured surface.
Stick the foil to a piece of black card measuring 3 1/4" x 4 1/4". Wrap a piece of the satin coastal cabana ribbon around this topper and attach the back with tear and tape. Use another small piece of ribbon to create a knot on the front. Stick the topper to the card base on an angle.
Stamp the sentiment onto a piece of calypso coral cardstock measuring 2cm x 7cm. Use the Triple banner punch to create the flagged end. Stick it to the card using dimensionals so it is partly resting on the bottom of the stamped mat and partly on the grapefruit grove mat. Add two wooden butterflies from the "Butterfly Elements"
