Step by Step

1. Blend black ink around the perimeter of a blue printed Gorjuss 6×6” card. From this point blend the ink round the other paper elements used in the design to tie everything together.

2. Place the book spine die cut topper centrally, just up from the bottom of the card blank. Add the ticket topper about a centimetre above this just right of centre.

3. Layer Gorjuss crochet & pompom trims & teal Gorjuss ribbon across the front of the card so that sits towards the top of the book spine topper. Attach the dotty die cut paper border on top of the teal border.

4. Add the border from the Ladybird mini decoupage pack to the right side of the card. Shape the foxy girl character and place her to the right of the frame covering the visible card blank beneath.

5. Place the teal and gold striped topper just above the crochet trim, so that it overlaps the frame and place the file label style topper just above.

6. Stamp the letters U and R onto grey card and add along with the die cut sentiment as shown.

7. Add the heart to a die cut red circle and place in the centre of the frame on the file. Add the canvas above the greeting and balance with an Oyster Blush polka dot button to the right of the characters boots.

8. Create two pennant style toppers using the spotty die cut border step 3 and the toadstool topper. Add a clock, overlapping them.

9. Finish with a sprinkling of black gems.
