TO MAKE THIS CARD

1.  Score cardstock A down the center and fold giving you a 4" x 6" card.  Cut papers B, C, D & E to size. 

2.  Glue paper C onto the bottom half of your card.  Secure with glue strip B overlapping the top of C.  Using the Mini Bee clear stamp set, stamp the swirly design along B.  Trim edges for evenness.

3.  Using the Mini Bee clear stamp set, make a floral line on D.  Stamp each image twice to get darker and lighter flowers.  Add leaves in green.  With the brown marker draw a circle in the center of each flower.

4.  Mat D with E brushing a little gold or brown ink around the edges of the mat.  Secure as shown in the layout with 3-d Sticky squares.

5.  Set eyelets in the top corners of the card.  Thread letter beads with spacers between each letter onto the wire in the correct order.  Thread wire through eyelet on left side and twist to secure.  Wrap wire around skinny dowel or other small cylinder to get the curly effect.  Curl as desired.  Cut wire on the right side of the beads – be sure to cut it long.  Thread wire into eyelet on the right side of the card and twist to secure.  Continue curling wire until complete.

6.  .  Add a sentiment or thought inside your card or leave it blank, enjoy the regal reds you have created!
