How do I make it?

1. Using white card, create a top folding card blank measuring 10.5x13cm.
2. Resize the digital image to measure 9.5cm wide and print on white card.
3. Colour the image using the Copics listed.
4. Trim the coloured image to measure 10.5x13cm, keeping the image a little closer to the top of the panel.
5. Stamp the sentiment with blue ink, in the bottom right corner.
6. Cut a piece of patterned paper to measure 1cm wide by 13cm high and attach to the right of the image panel. Cut a strip of blue card and attach this to the image panel as shown.
7. Secure the image panel to the card front and add star gems as shown to finish.
