Instructions
  1. Cut the lavender patterned cardstock in half so that each piece measures 5.5 x 8.5. Using the paper trimmer and scoring blade, score a line down the center of the card. Fold in half to form a quarter sheet card. The card should measure 5.5 x 4.25. Each sheet will make two cards.
  2. Use the paper trimmer to divide the pastel lavender sheet into 4 equal pieces measuring 4.25 x 5.5.
  3. Use the “You’re Invited” template to emboss flowers at each corner of one piece of the lavender cardstock. Trim around the edges with the scallop scissors.
  4. Cut a 4 x 2.5 piece of lavender patterned cardstock and white cardstock.
  5. Emboss the words “Thank You” at the center of the white cardstock, moving the paper so that “You” is beneath “Thank”. Emboss two flowers at each side of the “you” using the “You’re Invited” template. Trim around the edges of the white piece with the mini scallop scissors. Apply adhesive then place at the center of the lavender patterned rectangle.
  6. Place the lavender rectangle on the front of the card then punch a hole at the center of each embossed flower at the corners of the lavender rectangle. Attach the lavender rectangle to the card with a silver brad at each corner.
  7. Attach the “Thank You” center piece to the center of the card front by placing a foam dot at each corner.
    TIP: Make a matching envelope using the Fiskars Envelope 2 Template.
