To create…
1 Trim the Sugar Cookie cardstock to 6×12″ and fold it in half to create your card blank.
2 Cut the Leapfrog cardstock to 5 3/4×5 3/4″ and the Affectionate Flowers paper to 5 1/2″ square and invert the corners on both pieces. Attach the Leapfrog cardstock square to the card.
3 Using the remaining paper, cut four strips each measuring 33/4×3/4″ and attach to the Affectionate Flowers square with staples.
4 Punch two large retro flowers and two 1/2″ circles. Insert brads through the centres then attach one through the bottom strip and the Affectionate Flowers square. Stick this whole piece to card and add the other flowers.
5 Cut a sheet of Sugar Cookie cardstock to 21/2×4″ and Leapfrog cardstock to 21/4×33/4″ and invert the corners to form tags. Stamp and emboss your greeting and attach to a piece of Sugar Cookie punched rectangle. Attach to the tag.
6 Stamp and emboss another greeting onto Sugar Cookie cardstock and punch this from a 11/2″ punched circle, then matt onto a 2″ Leapfrog cardstock circle. Create another from the same punches. Cut thin strips of card and staple to the top of the tags. Slide into slits on the pocket.
