Matt for the front - Cut Pretty Peacock 4" x 5 1/4".
check you have all of the pieces cut out.
PUTTING TOGETHER - Matt your DSP (pattern paper) for the front with Pretty Peacock and stick down on the front of the card. Then using the coordinating 2 pieces of DSP stick them down inside the card.
MECHANISM - Place some tape on the triangle section of the mechanism and stick it down inside the card so it is centered and just below the scoreline, making sure it is straight then close the card to stick and repeat for the other side.
STAMPING - Stamp 3 of the Whisper White panels using the leaf stamp from Forever Fern Stamp Set. Stamp around the edges of the 4th one with the spotty stamp and add a small sentiment, ink the edges with Pretty Peacock classic ink pad and a dauber then matt them with Pretty Peacock panels. stick them down onto the Pop out panel piece.
STICK THE PANELS TO THE MECHANISM - Open up the card and fold the panels closed, place the panels at the bottom of the card to line up with the DSP, make sure it will open the correct way.
Place some tape on the bottom left corner and then close the card so the tape sticks to the panels.
And then repeat for the top right corner
To stick down make sure the panels have been moved so they are going to be on top of the tape on the right side then slowly close the card down do stick. Open up to make sure it has worked.
FRONT DECORATIONS - Select a circle foil accent from Forever Gold and cut out a circle from Layering Circles with Pretty Peacock to fit in the middle and then a smaller one from Whisper White, in the edges of the Whisper White one and stamp a sentiment then matt onto the pretty peacock circle and stick down to the center of the foil accent.
