How do I make it?

1. Create a 10.5x13cm top folding white card blank. 
2. Re-size digital image to measure 4cm wide and print out on white card. Colour the image using the markers listed. 
3. Cut out the image, leaving a narrow border all round. 
4. Cut two pieces of patterned paper to measure 10.5x4cm and 10.5x9.5cm and attach to the card front.
5. Die-cut three ovals from white card and stick together to create a frame. Keep one of the oval inners from the die-cut waste and stamp the sentiment in black ink, as shown.
6. Attach the oval frame and inner die-cut to the centre of the card front.
7. Mount the image on the left of the card front with foam pads to finish.
