Easy step by step instruction:

• Cut & fold (2) A2 card bases from white cardstock.
• Emboss (2) A2 panels of pale and light pink cardstock with the Floral Fan embossing folder, misting the back of each one with water before running through the diecut machine.
• Trim each panel slightly smaller than A2, then mount to the card bases with foam adhesive.
• Foil the Cherry Blossoms press plates in matte gold foil twice to white cardstock panels.
• Using a solid hot foil plate, reverse foil the leftover pieces to white cardstock.
• Diecut both the standard and solid foiled cherry blossoms with their coordinating dies.
• Trim the cherry blossoms as shown, then arrange & glue to each card front.
• Diecut the sentiments once from ivory glitter cardstock and twice from white cardstock.
• Diecut the shadow layers from vellum, then stack & glue them together.
• Arrange the sentiments as shown to each card, then adhere with liquid glue.
• Accent with Aura AB gems to finish.
