TO MAKE THIS CARD

1.  Score cardstock A down the center and fold giving you a 6" x 6" card.  Trim edges for evenness.  With the sentiment clear stamp from the Made for You Clear Stamp Set, randomly stamp the sentiment over the face of the card.  Stamp two images before re-inking the stamp.  Cut papers B, C, D and E to size. 

2.  To make tags of the three B’s lay the 1-1/2” x 1” paper on a cutting mat and cut a triangle with the two matching sides measuring ½”.  Punch a small hole in the end of each and set aside.

3.  On cardstock E, with your Geo Shapes Clear Stamp Set, ink your square shadow stamp in brown ink.  Make a design on the square using the stylus before stamping as explained in Shadow Stamping Tips and Techniques.  Stamp two images before re-inking (be sure to make another image in your re-inked clear stamp) until your pattern is complete.  Ink the edges of E as explained in Distressing – Enhancing with Age.

4.  Mat Cardstock E with D.  Ink the edges of D with gold ink or paint.  If you use craft paint just lightly load your brush and run it along the edges of the cardstock.  Do the same with your three tags and C.  Glue C onto the card leaving about 1/8” space at the top of the card showing.  Mount D onto C using 3-d sticky foam.

5.  With the Made for You Clear Stamp Set, stamp the heart in the center of your checkerboard pattern and emboss with gold embossing powder if desired.

6.  With your square clear stamp from the Geo Shapes Clear Stamp Set, ink in brown and stamp onto one of the Cardstock F.  This will cover the surface entirely.  Glue onto one of the tags (B)

7.  With the heart clear stamp from the Made for You Clear Stamp Set, stamp one heart in the center of the two remaining Cardstock F pieces.  Ink the edges with brown ink.  Glue these onto the two remaining tags (B). 

8.  Make holes for brads through C.  You may desire to make a ¼” – 3/8” circle from the dark brown cardstock to put the brads through first, then through the holes in C and secure into place.  This will keep the wire in place better.

9.  Cut wire about 3” long and thread through tags.  Twist at desired length, then loop around the round disk held in place by the brad.  Secure tag in place with 3-d sticky foam.  Be sure to secure the wire as well so it can’t slip off the brad later.  Repeat this process for each of the three tags with the solid one being in the middle.

10.  Add a sentiment or thought inside your card or leave it blank for a finished project!
