INSTRUCTIONS:
1 Trim down a sheet of white card to fit the base card, colour the four sides using the Burgundy marker pen, and fix in place on the card blank.
2 Using the Scalloped and Pierced Rectangles die set, cut die numbers one and two in white card. Glitter the largest die-cut panel using Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter and colour the edges of the smaller panel with the marker pen. Trim a sheet of patterned paper from the Summer Florals paper pad down to size, go around the four sides using Diamante Sparkle Sparkelicious glitter, then matt all three together and attach to the base card with foam pads. From the same die set, cut die number five in white card and colour the four sides with the marker pen then attach to the main card with foam pads.
3 Stamp and heat-emboss the Statement Sentiment ‘Thank You’ stamp onto pink paper from the Pastel Sorbet A4 paper pad using the Bright White embossing powder. Colour the words ‘Thank You’ with the marker pen and cover with Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter. When completely dry, die-cut with the sixth die from the Rectangles die set and secure onto the base card, decorating the background with the Pretty Pinks Self-Adhesive Sparkles.
4 Die-cut the full flowers from the Elegant Flower die set numerous times using the Pastel Sorbet paper pad and cover with Diamante Sparkle Sparkelicious glitter. Die-cut the lacy flowers in the same-coloured paper and cover with Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter. Shape the petals and adhere together with Pinflair glue gel. Die-cut the stamens in silver mirror card, cover with Diamante Sparkle Sparkelicious glitter, then attach to the middle of the flowers along with a 10mm or 12mm Sparkler, depending on the size of the stamen.
5 Die-cut the Leafy Foliage in white card and cover with Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter. Die-cut the Swirly Foliage in silver mirror card, then attach the flowers and foliage onto the main card using Pinflair glue gel to finish.
