Instructions:
1. Fold back the slits on your DSP to create an upside down shirt collar Position this on one of your 4" x 5 1/4" pieces of white cardstock. DO NOT .glue the DSP yet, we just want to get the right spot for the sentiment to be stamped . Using your embossing buddy swipe it over your white card stock, This will help the powder not stick where you don't want it.
2.Using your Large Greeting stamp and the Versamark ink, stamp your greeting. Apply your Silver Embossing powder and heat until it is melted and becomes a brilliant silver.
3.Adhere your DSP to the cardstock piece with your sentiment. You may need to adjust the slit on your DSP
4. Adhere these 2 pieces to the basic grey panel which measures 4" x 5 1/4"
5.adhere to the smoky slate card base.
6. At the point where the fold backs meet attach a bow
7. Using rhinestones embellish your card.
8.If you wish you may stamp a sentiment on the remaining white piece which will go on the inside of
the card.
