Card

Cut your base card from basic white thick card stock, to measure 29.2cm x 29.2cm (5 3/4″ x 5 3/4″ ) score on long side at 29.2cm (5 3/4″) Fold and burnish.

Open your card out and place back in your trimmer and score the left hand side at 7.3 cm (2 7/8″). Fold and burnish this back on your card to create a flap.

Vellum

From a piece of vellum, cut a piece to measure 14.8cm x 10.5cm. ( 5 13/16″).

Using your blend pens, scribble over the vellum creating a pattern of your choice . Put a little Isopropanol in a small pot and using a little paint brush, flick the Isopropanol onto the vellum, putting on as little or as much as you like. Let this dry completely before cutting.

Once dry, place long side at top of your cutter and cut at 14cm x 14cm (5 1/2″ x 5 1/2″). Adhere flat to the right hand side of your card. Careful not to put too much glue on this.

Take the piece left over from this and trim to measure 14cm x 6.8cm ( 5 1/2″ x 2 11/16`’). Adhere to the front flap of your card.

Decoration

The daffodil delight card stock should be cut to measure 11cm x 8cm (4 5/16″ x 3 1/8″)

Die cut a piece of basic white cardstock using the largest of the Stitched So Sweetly rectangle dies. Then place this in the Hive 3D embossing folder and emboss. This can now be adhered to the daffodil delight mat and then both adhered to the left hand flap so that it sits half on and half off.

From basic white card stock, cut the largest stitched circle from the Stitched Shaped dies. Stamp your bee images onto your stitched circle. The images can now be coloured and Wink of Stella’d! Place dimensionals (foam pads) on the back of the circle and adhere to the mat.

Lastly, die cut a flower from the Honeybee Blooms dies and adhere flat to the right hand side of your card.
