How to make the hinge card: For the card base cut 8 ½” x 11” White Cardstock in ½. On 1 piece of the white cardstock cut and emboss using Spellbinders 5” x 7” Matting Basics A - #7. On the 2nd piece, score the 5 ¼” side at ½” and crease. Lay cardstock on the die so the fold is inside of the cut line. Cut and emboss. Adhere together so that the hinge is on the bottom so your can cover it.
Layer 1: Cut 2 pieces of Lavender Cardstock using Matting Basics B- #7. Adhere I piece to the card front. Save the other piece for the inside of the card.
Layer 2: Cut /Emboss 2 pieces of White Cardstock using Matting Basics A- #6. Adhere I piece to the card front. Save the other piece for the inside of the card.
Layer 3: Cut /Emboss 2 pieces of DSP using Matting Basics B- #6: 1 for the front and 1 for the inside of the card. Adhere 1 piece to the White cardstock. Adhere this section to the card using Dimensional Tape.
Layer 4: Use the Cuttlebug “Brocade Window” Embossing Plus Folder for the last layer. Remove from die and cut smaller using Matting Basics B- #6.
Emboss/Cut Spellbinders Fancy Lattice. Adhere to the back of the “Brocade Window” using ATG Tape. Add Dimensional Tape around the edge of the “Brocade Window”. Do not adhere to card yet.

Flower Sprays: Martha Stewart Hydrangea Punches - Punch 4 medium and 4 of the largest 3-in-1 punch. Score each petal in half and draw a vein down the fold and 2 on each side. Form flower and glue together. The center flower centers are from Punch Bunch Medium Big Sky Punch. I added glitter and to the dots. For the smaller flowers I cut the stamen shorter. Marianne Creatables Seed and Head Leaves were added to the top spray. I used Marianne Creatables Decorative Elegance for the bottom spray.
