You will need...

Scrapbook kit, Stack, All Occasions
Brads, orange
Tag-A-Long die-cutting machine, Ellison
Thin Cuts die flowers, set #3
Foam, 3D
Inkpad, pink
Ribbon, yellow, organza: two widths
Box, small, circular

Use hot pinks and cheery sentiments to give your crafting a summertime feel. Bright papers and simple designs make for a stress-free project that will be a pleasure to both make and receive. We’ve cut the flowers with a die-cutting machine. If you don’t have access to one you could use fabric flowers or cut freehand shapes instead.

Happy Card

Cut a white blank 15cm x 8cm and attach a smaller rectangle from pink spotty paper with double-sided tape. Trim two 4.5cm panels from the pink card and fix a slightly smaller spotty one onto it.

Make two flowers using a Thin Cuts flowers die (set #3) and Tag-A-Long die-cutting machine. Rub a pink inkpad around the edges to give the petals definition. Fix to panels and apply to card as shown. Glue a length of yellow organza ribbon across the middle of the card and attach a 'happy' sticker in the centre.
