How to Make
1. Stamp the SANTORO®'s Willow Aurora image onto a piece of white
cardstock.
2. Once the ink has dried, colour the
dress, flowers and hair using the First Edition Sangria marker (18), add some
detail using the First Edition burgundy marker (17) to create shading on the
hair, dress and flowers. Use the twin blending markers to blend the colours.
3. Colour the skin using First
Edition porcelain marker (07) and add some detail with ivory marker pen (08).
Use the other side of the pen to blend the colours together. With the First
Edition posy marker (10), colour and blend the cheeks and lips.

4. Create an outline for the image
using light grey marker pen (01).
5. Cut out the stamped image to 8.2cm
x 8.9cm. Add to an 8.5cm x 9.2cm piece of the SANTORO®'s Willow red patterned paper.
6. Cut a piece of the SANTORO®'s Willow pink distressed paper to 14.9cm x 14.7cm and stick to the centre of
the pearlescent card blank with double
sided tape.

7. With the SANTORO®'s Willow green patterned paper, cut a
13.4cm square and add to the centre of the card. Cut a piece of 11.8cm square
from the SANTORO®'s
red and white floral paper
and layer on top of the green paper at an angle. Finally, cut a piece of heart
paper to 13.3cm x 9.9cm and add to the middle of the layered cards.
8. To decorate the card, stick a SANTORO®'s Willow large
black floral flower to the top right of the card and layer a red and white
floral blossom on top. Tuck a paper leaf under the paper blossoms on the left
side and stick to the card.

9. Add the stamped image to the centre
of the card using foam pads to make the Aurora character stand out as a
centrepiece.
10. Add a wooden bird to the top
right corner of the card and glue a gold metal cog to the bottom left of the
stamped image. To finish, glue another metal cog onto the card beside the
stamped image and add three sequins to spine of the paper leaf.
