To create…

2 Print out the backing paper from the free downloads and trim to fit the card front. Edge with an inkpad and attach to the front of the card.
3 Print out the découpage sheet and triple-mount the first layer with purple, white, then purple cardstock, leaving a narrow border each time. Trim the découpage elements from the sheet and layer as shown using 3D foam pads.
4 Wrap the front of the card with purple ribbon and tie into a bow, before mounting your finished topper onto the card front.
5 Select a bookmark and use a graphics program to add text and resize before printing. Place two layers of double-sided foam pads on the back and mount onto the card base as shown as a ‘stopper’ for your easel card.
