1. |
Use the ShapeCutter and heart template to cut a 4”
heart from the scrap cardstock. Use this heart to draw around, adding
½” to all sides. Cut out second heart. |
| |
2. |
Use the paper trimmer to cut a piece of burgundy
cardstock 5-1/2” x 10”. Mark the center of the long
side, and fold both short sides in to meet at the center point. |
| |
3. |
Place large heart on top of folded paper, making
sure outer edges of heart extend beyond fold lines. Trace and cut
out heart through all thicknesses. You will now have a heart shaped
card that opens in the center. |
| |
4. |
Use the ShapeCutter and heart template to cut two
3-1/2” hearts from the mottled paper, and one from the pink
wavy striped paper. Cut a 3” heart from the pink floral paper.
Use the Memory Book Glue Dots® to adhere one mottled heart to
the inside center heart. Cut the wavy striped heart in half lengthwise
and use the Memory Book Glue Dots® to adhere both pieces to
the inside flaps of the card. Cut 2 remaining hearts in half lengthwise
and layer on the outside of card, using the Memory Book Glue Dots®. |
| |
5. |
Use a Craft Glue Dot® to adhere a tea bag to
inside of card. |
| |
6. |
Write sentiment on inside of card one line on each
inside flap. “Make yourself a cup of tea, and as you sip it,
think of me”. |
| |

Glue Dots® on back of card horizontally, in line with folded
