Materials…
- White pearlescent card blank
- Flower Fairies die-cut decoupage sheet (#28)
- Silicone glue
- DCWV Nana’s Nursery Baby Boy 8×8″ paper stack
- Purple cardstock
- Scallop-edged scissors
- Make a Wish stamp
- Purple inkpad
- Lilac organza ribbon
- Acetate
To create…
1 Assemble the lavender fairy from the sheet, apart from the base layer, using silicone glue and leave to dry.
2 Use the fairy decoupage base layer as a template to cut an oval aperture from an A4 white pearlescent card blank. Attach a rectangle of acetate to the inside of the card behind the aperture.
3 Cut an oval slightly larger than the fairy decoupage base layer from purple cardstock. Also cut an oval of this size from patterned paper, which will be used to frame the aperture. Attach this to the card front.
4 Affix a strip of the striped paper down the right-hand side of the card front. Cut a strip of purple cardstock with one straight edge and one scalloped edge, and attach to cover the join.
5 Cut a small rectangle from scrap pearlescent card, ink the edges and stamp with a sentiment. Attach to the card front along with a lilac bow.
6 Attach the base decoupage layer to the purple oval and glue to the inside of the card directly beneath the aperture. Glue the remaining decoupage pieces to the acetate aperture, so that they line up with the base layer inside the card.
