cut out the aperture and the cut off the excess around the frame.

contrasting coloured sheet so that the die cut stands out.

Dovecraft Perma Fix Tape.

reindeer die cut is in the centre of the frame.
8.
Die cut a Dovecraft button on to a Wild at Heart
sheet, thread it through a length of Dovecraft Twine and wrap it around the
bottom of your frame. Adhere your frame with Dovecraft Perma Fix Tape at an
angle, to the edge of the folded section on your card.
9.
Next, die cut the Dovecraft leaf die 4 times on
your chosen Wild at Heart sheet. Stick each one vertically, along the right
hand edge of your card with 3D foam pads.
10.
Stamp your chosen sentiment with the Dovecraft
Clear Stamps or Simply Creative Alphabet Clear Stamps set on a piece of Wild at
heart paper. Cut out and adhere it with 3D foam pads to the folded section on
your card.
For an alternative design, you could use the Dovecraft Star
dies and die cut a selection of different shaped stars on your chosen Wild at
Heart sheet. To add detail, fill each aperture with a different paper design.
Once done, layer onto a selection of Wild at Heart sheets and finish with a
stamped sentiment.
To create a stand out look, layer the Wild at Heart paper
designs both vertically and horizontally on your card blank. Experiment with
shape and size to add interest to your make. Finish by adding the Dovecraft
Happy Birthday die cut to the centre, with 3D foam pads.
The Wild at Heart paper designs vary so much, enabling you
