This issue we feature a delightful collection from Lucy Cromwell by Papermania, off ering all the cups of tea, cake and bunting you will need to set the scene. And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge! Our ‘Wedding Special’ feature also includes jewellery for the bride and a charming idea to hold onto those precious memories of the big day!

Step by Step
1
Cut the cardstock elements of the card using the petal dies. Use the largest die and the middle die and cut one of each.
2
Use the largest and the second largest dies together to cut the frame and the centre panel from silver mirri card. Use the magnetic sheet that comes in the pack to hold the dies in position as you cut.
3
Emboss the mirri card panel using the snowflake embossing folder.
4
Decorate the mirri card frame with adhesive stones.
5
Mount the Christmas Bauble sticker onto white textured card and cut out.
6
To assemble your card use 3D foam pads to layer up your petal panels as shown in the picture and centre your Christmas Bauble
7
The frame is attached with a 3D foam pad at the centre top and bottom and gently folded forwards to give lots of dimension to your card but will fold flat for posting.
8
The stand for the card is made by cutting a strip (14.8 x 5 cm) from the red textured card. Use your border punch to create a decorative edge to the top and bottom. Snip between the punched detail about 1 cm from either end to make the slots for the card to stand in. Be careful not to cut too far into your card.
9
Fold the decorative strip in half and finish by decorating with some snowflakes from the Christmas Baubles sticker sheet.
