INSTRUCTIONS

Cut your card bases. One card base will be in white, the other card base in your chosen color. The next cardstock layer will be the same colors and put them with the opposite card, see photos above.

Die cut your arch into the cardstock layer. Set aside the die cut arch for the inside of the card. Cut another arch die cut with the DSP, choose your scenes as desired. I chose scenes that coordinated with the colors. Glue the frame layer to the card base. Pop the scene from the DSP into the frame.

OPTIONAL: Emboss the arch frame layer before gluing to card base with Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder. Trim edges of ribbon and glue to the base of the arch die cut. 

Stamp greeting on the Basic White die cut from The Love of Spring Dies. Stamp sentiment for inside the card on the die cut arch. I chose Blueberry Bushel ink and Melon Mambo for my stamping. 

Glue the arch die cut inside the card. Pop the greeting on dimensionals and place over the ribbon.

Finish with desired embellishments. I chose Brushed Brass Butterflies to substitute for the Birds & Dragonflies which is on backorder until early February. All other Meandering Meadow products are currently available. 

I hope you enjoyed this simple and fun color swap. This is easy to do with many different suites, bundles and Designer Series Papers!

Happy Crafting!
