Step by Step:

 

  1. Score the real red card stock at 2 ½” and 6 ¾” .  The 2 ½” flap is the top of the card.  Take the 2 ½” circle punch and punch out the right side of the real red card stock on the 2 ½” flap – the punch should be centered over the score line and should have approximately a ½” of real red card stock showing on the right side and 1 3/8” real red card stock showing on the left.  Punch out.
  2. Put the 2 ½” flap into the hearts embossing folder (on the score line) and run through the Big Shot.
  3. Put the larger flap – at the 6 ¾” score line into the hearts embossing folder and run through the Big Shot.
  4. On the top 2 ½” flap – tape the ¾” x 4 ¼” polka dot real red dsp on the bottom of the flap.
  5. Repeat this process with the real red circle dsp – making sure to notch out using scissors or a square punch.  Attach over the polka dot dsp as shown in card above.
  6. Punch out the following:
    1. Modern label punch – basic black
    2. Word window punch – stamp Happy Valentines Day using basic black staz on and punch out using word window punch.
    3. 2 3/8” scallop circle punch – basic black
    4. Scalloped heart of hearts embosslit – real red and cut out using the Big Shot.
    5. Fashionable heart of hearts embosslit – whisper white and cut out using the Big Shot.
  7. Attach your greeting to the 2 ½” flap of the card using dimensionals.  Attach a rhinestone to the left of the greeting.
  8. Fold up the card – all flaps and tape the black scallop circle into the hole that is created.  Attach the red heart using mini glue dots.   Attach the white heart using a stamping dimensional.,
  9. Your card is finished!
