To create…

1 Cut an 8 1/2×3″ strip of patterned paper and score at 2 3/4″ and 6″. Ink the edges with the dark brown ink.

2 Border punch a 3″ strip of red cardstock and apply behind the edge of the front flap.

3 Wrap three paper rose stems together with a long length of twine and layer onto the front with a keyhole, using the supplied fasteners to keep the roses in place. Apply a little red paint to the lower two roses.

4 Cut a piece of red cardstock to measure 4 3/4×3 1/4″ and punch the corners. Dry brush the edges with white paint.

5 Rip a 2 1/2″ square from a page of a book and ink the edges. Attach in the centre of the card and dry brush with white paint. Paint and ink a grungeboard heart and arrange on the card with some word stickers.

6 Place the card in the centre of the folder and tie shut.
