Fold on your three score lines so the fold looks like an M (think mountain - valley fold) see the video tutorial for this part if needed. Once you have your score lines folded you are actually going to glue them together so the two score lines meet and now you have a 1-1/4" flap inside your card that will become the fun fold.
Stamp "A friend like you brings me happiness" in Shaded Spruce ink on the Deckled Rectangle Die Cut. Set aside.
For the inside of the card:
- glue the Bird Pattern DSP strip onto the fun fold flap inside the card (1 x 5-1/4" strip)
- glue the Birch DSP panel to the inside of the card (4 x 5-1/4" panel)
- add glue only to the top of the Deckled Rectangle and then adhere it to the fun fold flap
For the outside of the card:
- glue the Pussy Willow Copper Clay Pattern DSP panel (4 x 5-1/4" size) to card front
- wrap the thread around the 2 x 5-1/2" strip in Birch pattern three times and then glue to card front
- glue the two deckled circles together and then add circle to the center of your card front with dimensionals
- decorate the circle with your die cut bird duo, pine branches, pussy willow die cuts and die cut branches (arrange how you like around the birds)
