Step 1: Cover the 5 x 7″ printer paper with the adhesive sheet. Remove liner sheet to expose adhesive, place on paper, remove the remaining liner and cover adhesive with ribbon.
Step 2: Place on the Big Shot mat with the ribbon side facing up. This way you can see where your die will be cutting. Place Nested Eggs die template on top of ribbon with cut side down, smooth side down. I used the #4 die template (with #1 being the smallest). Then layer with another mat. Run through Big Shot at least two times. You may need to make extra passes depending on how thick your ribbon is. We cut with scissors along line if the ribbon did not cut on big shot.
Step 3: Now flip your ribbon paper over and reposition the Nested Eggs die template over the cut line. Run through the Big Shot two more times. This helps cut through the ribbon on both sides.
Step 4: Now, cut/emboss one border from white cardstock using Spellbinders™ Easter Borderabilities® Petite#1 die template.
Step 5: To emboss, place die template with paper side up on mat, then an embossing pad, then a second mat. Run through Big Shot.
Step 6: Use a foam mat with a piercing tool or push pin to poke holes in the border.
Step 7: Cut/Emboss a second Spellbinders™ Easter Borderabilities® Petite die template #1 from a 2” x 5 1/2″ piece of pattern paper, save the top and bottom.
Step 8: Card measures 6” x 5 1/2″. Adhere bottom border piece on card front, then white border, then top border piece. Embellish with ribbon.
Step 9: Cut/Emboss one Spellbinders™ Classic Scalloped Rectangles Large #5 die template from white cardstock, stamp sentiment in lower right corner with black ink. Adhere to card front with 3D Foam.
Step 10: Color embossed tulips on border with markers or colored pencils. Cut Spellbinders™ Easter Borderabilities® Petite die template #1 from various colors of cardstock for the butterflies and flower. Adhere Ribbon Egg and assemble as shown with 3D Foam.
