Instructions:

1. First adhere the thin red strips to the bottom of the card.
2. Adhere the white long cardstock strip onto the red cardstock strip. Die cut the word “Celebrate” using the Sizzix machine and arrange the letters onto the white strip and stick them on with the stick glue. More about
how to use the Sizzix™ Sidekick®. Mix the lower case and the upper case letters to give the word a whimsical look.
3. Use double sided adhesive and adhere the strip now centered onto the card above the 2 thin red strips. Punch a hole in each of the corners of the strip and insert the brads.
4. Prick holes around each of the cardstock squares. The distance between the holes is 5 mm. Now punch out 2 blue stars and one white star and adhere each of these on an opposite colored square. Prick 2 holes in the center of each star like button holes. From the back side insert the wire ends into the holes and bring the wire pieces to the front. Spiral coil the ends and twist them at the base where the star is to secure them.
5. Use 3-D foam tape strips to adhere the 3 squares onto the card.
