• Stamp the ‘Keep Palm’ sentiment onto white card using a blend of green inks. Stamp palm leaves around it.
• Cut around the palm leaves and mount onto a top-fold white A6 blank so that it overlaps the edges. Trim away any excess on the left side only.
• Wrap and tie a length of light green and mid green baker's twine around the base of the blank and finish with three green gems on the palms. Round off the lower right corner.
• Create a top-fold 8.5cm x 15cm blank from white card and matt a slightly smaller piece of black paper onto it so the top edge is in line with the fold.
• Fix the tall pink floral die-cut label centrally towards the top. Matt the ‘Best Day Ever’ round die-cut sentiment onto a slightly bigger circle of white card and attach to the top left of the label.
• Stick a floral die-cut to the top, overlapping the circle. Add two gems to the circle and three to the label.
