Fancy Frame with FlowersCompleted by Lyn Simms

I folded an A4 sheet of card into halve to create an A5 card and one side in half again. I then cut the half with the fold in it from the centre to the outside edge 15cms along thereby creating two folding sections for the easels.

Using the same type of card I cut an ?L? shaped section to form the stopper, the long edge being 16 cms long and the short edge 5 cms. I attached some ribbon along the longer part of this and then and put double sided foam tape on the back then attached the stopper to the inside lower part of the card base. I attached some ribbon to the small easel section of the card base by using double sided tape on the underside of the card and wrapping the ribbon around the card.

To create the toppers I cut out the pieces from the kit and glued a pretty picture on to the base of the topper and with foam pads attached the frame. I shaped and glued the petals to form the flowers and put these onto the frame along with the leaves. When this was all dry I then mounted the topper to the larger easel taking care to attach only the lower half. I put a greeting onto a further piece of card, edged with peeloffs and put this onto the other easel. I finished off with bows which matched the ribbon already used.
