1. First you need to fold your corrugated cardstock into a size C-6 card or the standard card size for your country.
|
|
|
2. Cut a piece of the jute ribbon and adhere a piece of the clear double sided adhesive tape on the backside. Stick it on the left side of the card and cut away any excess hanging over the sides of the card.

3. Cut 4 triangles from another piece of the corrugated cardboard. Turn each triangle over and use your eyelet tool and punch a hole through the triangle, the ribbon and the front side of the card. Set each hole with an eyelet.

4. Cut a piece of the raffia and insert it from the inside of the front card half. Tie the ends together on the right side of the card and cut away what is too much.

6. Remove now the protective paper from the tape and stick the image onto your card.

7. Cut a circle out of the handwritten page of your paper and use strong double sided adhesive tape to stick it inside the bottle cap.
|
|
|
8. Turn the bottle cap over and place a piece of foam tape on it. Remove the protective paper and stick it onto the card with the inside of the cap facing up.

9. This is the finished card. If your triangle corners do not want to stay flat, you may use 3-D foam pads to hold them down.
