Designer’s Tip: The foil Sweet Life Paper Tole and the brown Tasty Sweets Dazzles™ can work together nicely on the same card. Use a different background paper on each of sections on this side step card for a neat look.
Instructions:
- For the front: Assemble your side-step card according to the package instructions. Cover the left tall panel with brow dot paper, trimming to fit. Cover the bottom wide section with white dot. Cover the top step with blue treats pattern and the second step with green hearts pattern. Glue sheer pink swirl ribbon across the top of the white dot strip using Zips™. Trim to fit. Assemble the ice cream paper tole with foam tape and foam tape it to the left panel, 3/4" from the top. Zot™ a small knot of sheer pink swirl ribbon to the bottom right of the ice cream. Back a variety of 7 small Dazzles™ treats with patterned paper and mat all on white cardstock with a 1/16" border. Foam tape them evenly spaced along the white dot section as shown. Back a triple-scoop ice cream cone with patterned paper, trimming each patterned piece to fit. Mat on white cardstock with a 1 1/6" border and glue to the top step towards the left side, with 2 scoops extending past the card. Back the cotton candy Dazzles™ with pink and orange paper and mat on white cardstock with a 1/16" border. Glue to the second step on the right side with half the cotton candy extending above the step. Tie a bow of pink and white twine. Knot the ends of the bow and glue to the ice cream cone as shown, using Zots™. Do the same for the cotton candy with orange and white twine (both found in the Sweet Life ribbon collection).
- For the inside: Cover the inside with pink paper, trimming to fit. Cut 3" x 1/2" of green dot paper and mat on blue treat pattern paper, with 1/4" borders. Glue across the top left section of the card inside, as shown. Create 3 more small treats like are on the front, and foam tape them above the strip on the inside, as shown.
