How do I make it?
- Create a 12cm square black card blank.
- Re-size the digital image to measure 9cm high and print out on white card.
- Colour the image using the markers listed, then trim around the edge, leaving a narrow border.
- Add white spots to the red waistcoat with a white gel pen.
- Die-cut the scallop frame three times; twice with plain white card, once with black card and keep one of the white centres. Mount the die-cuts together, making sure you use the black frame as the top layer.
- Attach patterned paper, measuring 12cm square, to the card front. Attach the frame and the white centre to the card front, as shown.
- Stamp the sentiment in black ink at the right of the white panel.
- Mount the image onto the card front with foam pads. Finally add an enamel star next to the sentiment.
