Instructions:
1. Emboss and cut each of the three leaves on off-white paper. 2. Use the small square punch to cut out three olive green squares. Use the larger square punch to cut out three off-white squares. Adhere the green squares onto the white squares. Use 3-D foam tape to adhere the leaves onto the green squares. 3. Cut out a 2 3/8 inch wide strip to fit the front of your card. Adhere a fiber ribbon strip to the top and bottom of this piece before adhering it to the card. Now cut a 3/8 inch strip and stick it across the green rectangle. Now you may adhere the 3 squares to the card. 4. Stamp your birthday wish to a scrap piece of off-white cardstock and cut out in a rectangle shape. Adhere this onto olive green structure cardstock and cut out leaving a small border on three sides and a wider border on the right short side. Punch a small hole to the right side of the rectangle and insert the brad. Adhere this piece now onto the bottom right of the card.
