Instructions:

Trim bright white cardstock to 5.5” x 5.5”. Trim another piece of bright white cardstock to 4.25” x 4.25”. Trim aqua-colored cardstock to 4.25” x 4.25”. Trim printed papers to 2.75” x 2.75”. Spray back of each printed paper with spray adhesive and adhere to white cardstock lining up with each edge. Then, add Zots to each corner of both the white and aqua-colored cardstock and center on background. Cut out ½” circles with the circle paper punch and adhere them to the page using one foam square for each. This will give it a 3-dimensional look. Cut (4) flowers with the flower paper punch and glue to center of each circle. Using a small strip of white embroidery thread, slip thru the whole in the vellum tag and glue both thread and tag to the background. Cut a small piece of white ribbon and make a bow. Glue to top over embroidery thread. Heat up the glue gun and once it’s nice and hot, add some glue to the backside of your Silly Milly, placing in the middle of the vellum tag. Using the Elegant Eggplant stamp pad, add the words “Happy” and “Birthday” to the left and bottom of the white cardstock. Stamp and sign your name on the back of the card, if desired, and it’s done!
