Designer Tips: Color Dazzles™ while still on background sheet and let dry before removing. Do NOT use transfer sheet to remove the Dazzles™ from the backing sheet or the color can be pulled off.

Instructions:

  1. Place the card fold at the left. Cover the top 11/2” with brown cardstock. Punch a 5 ½” row of scallops on black cardstock. Glue across the card, ½” from the top. Trim even with the card edges. Cover the remaining portion of the card with red dot paper. Apply black ink to the card edges.
  2. Tape the ends of the twill to the protected table top. Use the ruler as a straight edge and draw a line of 98 Chestnut brown down the length of the twill. Repeat with lines of 1 Wine Red on each side of the brown. Glue the twill to the top of the red dot paper. Trim the ends even with the card edges.
  3. Color the large flower with 1Wine Red and a small flower with 86 Vivid Radish Purple. Let dry and back with black and tan cardstocks. Cut out and secure a black brad at the center of the small pink flower and layer with foam tape. Foam tape to the left side of the twill. Color the greeting 98 Chestnut brown, let dry and place at the bottom of the card.
  4. Inside: Cover the bottom 11/2” of the card with red dot paper. Glue a length of striped twill across the top. Color a small Dazzles™ flower with 1 Wine Red and let dry. Back with black cardstock. Cut out and secure a black mini brad at the center. Foam tape to the left side of the twill. Color the greeting with 98 Chestnut brown and place above the twill.
