INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Cut a piece of Real Red Card Stock to measure 5 1/2" x 8 1/2". Fold it in half and cease it with the Bone Folder. The crease will be on the left hand side.
2) Assemble the Big Shot Die Cutting Machine "Sandwich" ~ First Standard Cutting Pad, Multipurpose Platform (Tab#1), the Real Red Card Stock inside of the Framed Tulips Textured Impressions Folder, and the other Standard Cutting Pad. Run this "Sandwich" through the Big Shot Die Cutting Machine.
3) Cut a piece of Whisper White Card Stock to measure 3"x 4 1/4". Ink up the "Be My Valentine" Stamp using the Real Red Classic Stampin' Pad. Stamp the image towards the top of the Whisper White Card Stock.
4) Ink up the "Be My Valentine" Stamp again and stamp it on a piece of scrap Whisper White Card Stock. Cut out the "Be My Valentine" banner using the Paper Snips.
5) Outline the fully stamped "Be My Valentine" image using the Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Hold the stamped Whisper White Card Stock over the Small Powder Pal and pour the Silver Glass Glitter over the wet Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Gently push the Silver Glass Glitter into the wet Multipurpose Liquid Glue, to ensure that the pieces of Silver Glass Glitter are stuck to the Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Pour the excess Silver Glass Glitter back into the jar.
6) Adhere the "Be My Valentine" banner as shown using 2 Stampin' Dimensionals.
7) Cut a piece of Real Red 5/8" Satin Ribbon to measure 7 1/2". Tie a knot in the Real Red 5/8" Satin Ribbon towards one side. Flip the Real Red 5/8" Satin Ribbon over and apply SNAIL Adhesive to the back. Adhere the Real Red 5/8" Satin Ribbon to the stamped Whisper White Card Stock. Fold the end pieces behind the Whisper Whisper
White Card Stock
to hide the ends of the Real Red 5/8" Satin Ribbon.

8) Adhere the Whisper White Card Stock to the Embossed Real Red Card Base using Stampin' Dimensionals.
