Instructions:

1. For the card front: Place the card with the fold at the top. Cut 6¼"x4¾" Blue Persuasion light blue diamonds paper. Wrap a 6" length of dark blue crepe ribbon over the paper, 1⅜" from the right edge, and glue the ends to the back. Glue the paper centered on the card front.
2. Die cut the Blue Persuasion die from the white side of Blue Persuasion cardstock, then mat it on Finely Brushed sheet with ⅛" wide borders. Remove the backing from the sheet and place the die-cut across the front, ⅞" from the bottom. Decorate the die-cut with Jewel Dazzles™.
3. Remove the Blue Persuasion “knowing you…” tag from the sheet and mat it on dark blue Cardstock with 1/16" borders. Foam tape it to the front over the ribbon as shown. Foam tape the small round flower die-cut to the tag at the lower right.

6. Die cut the Blue Persuasion die from the white side of Blue Persuasion Cardstock, then cut a tile off one end.

7. Ink the edges of the three Blue Persuasion die-cuts shown. Glue the square and oval die-cuts and foam tape the “thanks” banner die-cut to the inside as shown. Glue a ½" navy button and ⅜" white button tucked under two banner corners. Tie a thread bow and glue it to the navy button, Hold two threads together and knot the center.
