Instructions:

  1. Score the card base in half at 5-1/2” and burnish the fold with a Bone Folder.

  4. Stamp the floral image in Pear Pizzazz ink 6 times to create a wreath on the 4” x 4” Whisper White Card Stock and on the 4” x 4” Vellum Card Stock.
  5. Use a Heat Tool on low to dry the ink on the vellum. Don’t over heat the vellum. Only heat the ink until it isn’t shiny.
  6. Color in the flowers on both wreaths using the Pink Pirouette Stampin’ Blends Markers.
  7. Adhere the unicorn to the center of the Vellum using Tear & Tape.
