Instructions:

  1. For the card front: Turn the card with the fold at the top and cut it to 6½” x 4”. Cut a piece of the red hearts paper to fit the front and glue it in place. Cut a 6¼” x 3¾” piece of cherries paper and glue it centered on the card front.
  2. Punch a ribblets border in a 7” x 3” piece of the hearts paper. Trim it to 6½” x 1”. Thread a 7½” length of light blue ribbon through the border and trim the ends even with the border. Mat the border on burgundy, then glue it across the card front, 1” from the upper edge.
  3. Punch two hearts from the blue heart area of the heart border paper. Mat both on Cardstock. Use the pen to draw squiggly lines and dots around the edges of the hearts. Cut a 2½” x 3” piece of the cardstock and place it face down on the heart pattern in the Top Score. Use the scoring tool to emboss the heart shape into the cardstock. Sand the embossed area of the heart and cut it out. Glue the three hearts to the border as shown.
  4. Use one length of crystal stickers to make a heart shape on the center cardstock heart, pressing them in place. Add single crystals over the holes in the border as shown. Knot a 4” length of ribbon and glue it just left of the hearts. Stamp “With Love” on cardstock, then trim it and mat it on blue and red. Add foam tape to the back and adhere it to the lower right.
  5. For the inside: Cut a 5½” x 3” piece of the cherries paper and glue it centered on the inside back. Print the sentiment in burgundy on white paper and mat it on cardstock. Glue it in the center of the cherries piece.
  6. Punch a heart from the hearts paper and mat it on burgundy. Punch a heart from cardstock and glue both hearts as shown. Add squiggly lines and dots as shown.
