Cut a piece of white cardstock at 6” x 12”, score at 3” x 9” and fold to create a gatefold card.

Cut two pieces of the striped paper 6” x 6” and cut down the centres and adhere to the front and backs of the side folds.
Front – Die cut the large eyelet rectangle from the HCD2-7189 Eyelet Lace Frame die set in green cardstock and adhere to the centre of the card adhering on the left side. Using the next size down plain die cut the patterned paper and stamp the image from the HCPC-3843 Special Birthday Sentiments Stamp set in Tuxedo Black ink using a stamp positioner and adhere to the front of the rectangle.
Inside – Die cut the outer and inner frames from the HCD1-7203 Ornamental Tags Die set in green cardstock. Die cut the sentiment out of green cardstock and adhere to the frame. Die cut two lace corners from HCD1-7202 Album Tags and Accents Die set in green cardstock and adhere to each end of the frame. Adhere to the back of the card aligning the sentiment to the top edge of the card. Cut a piece of patterned paper 6” x 5 15/16” inch and adhere to the back of the card. Cut a piece of coordinating paper 5 15/16” x 4” and die cut the edge using the plain edge die from the HCD1-7119 Classic Border Basics set and then die cut a eyelet edge from the HCD1-7119 Classic Border Basics set from green cardstock and adhere it behind the patterned paper. Adhere the pocket to the back of the card on the bottom and side edges only.
Die cut the larger tag die from green cardstock and the smaller tags from the patterned paper from the HCD1-7201 Ticket and Tags Die set. Adhere them together and die cut the small hole protectors from green cardstock and adhere around the holes. Stamp the sentiments from the HCPC-3845 Just For You Sentiments Stamp set in Tuxedo Black ink and finish with some green grosgrain ribbon. Place the tags in the pocket.
Belly Band – Cut a strip of green 3” x 12” and using the lace edge die from the HCD1-7202 Album Tags and Accents Die set cut the edges. Cut a piece of green patterned paper 1 ½” x 12” and adhere around the centre of the green strip. Cut a piece of striped purple paper 1 ¼” x 12” and adhere to the centre of the band. Fold around the card leaving enough room to slide up and down the card. There will be a gap, but this will be covered with the sentiment frame. Die cut the eyelet label frame from the HCD1-7203 Ornamental Tags Die set in green cardstock and the coordinating label from the patterned paper. Die cut the inner frame from the frame set in green cardstock and adhere to the label. Die cut the A Gift For You sentiment from the HCD1-7203 Ornamental Tags Die set In purple paper and adhere to the front of the label.
Stamp the leaves from the HCPC-3842 Oakberry Lane Blossoms stamp set in Library Green ink on flower shaping cardstock, colour in with Fern Green, Leaf Green inks and Rose Madder inks before die cutting with the coordinating die. Shape using the coordinating mold and assemble when dry and add Crystal Clear glitter with Dries Clear glue. Adhere on the belly band and the front of the card base as shown.
Stamp the flowers from the HCPC-3842 Oakberry Lane Blossoms stamp set in Majestic Violet and Rose Madder inks on white flower making cardstock and die cut with the coordinating dies. Sponge the outer edges of the purple flowers with Majestic Violet ink and the middle of the flowers with Vivid Chartreuse ink and the pink flower edge with Rose Madder ink and the centres with Sunflower ink and shape using the coordinating mold. Assemble when dry and add Crystal Clear glitter to the flowers and the Lettuce Entertain You Prills to the centres of the purple flowers and Heart of Gold prills to the centres of the pink flowers.
Add the pink and purple flowers around the band as shown and nestle the leaves around them. Stamp the squirrel images from the HCPC-3830 Furry-Tailed Frolics stamp set in Sepia ink on white cardstock. Colour with Bisque and Sepia ink and die cut with the coordinating dies. Nestle the squirrel reaching out above the flowers at the bottom right of the belly band.
I think these new stamps and dies are an essential addition to your paper crafting arsenal and I know that I will be using them a lot.
