Let’s begin!
Step 1: Cut one 4” x 11” piece of patterned cardstock. Score at 1 ¾”, 2”, 5” and 8”. This will be the wallet.
Step 2: Stamp sentiment on inside flap area (as shown). Crease and burnish score lines.
Step 3: Cut three 2 ¾” x 7 ½” pieces of solid colour cardstock. Score at 3 ¾”. Crease and burnish score lines. These cards will be adhered on the inside of the wallet.
Step 4: Cut three 2 ½” x 3 ½” pieces of patterned cardstock and three 2” x 3” pieces of white cardstock. Stamp sentiments on white panels, then adhere to patterned panels.
Step 5: Apply ink, only to the shamrock of the large bunny image, and stamp on patterned cardstock. Repeat until you have 9 stamped shamrocks, then cut out and adhere sequins to centre of each. Set aside to dry.
Step 6: Cut three 2 ½” x 3 ½” pieces of green shimmer cardstock, then adhere desired photos to each panel. Adhere all sentiment and photo panels to the inside of cards from step 3, then adhere inside of the wallet. Adhere shamrocks, as desired.
Step 7: Die-cut Cherish die from black shimmer cardstock. Trim apart each word.
Step 8: Cut three ¼” x 2 ¾” strips of green shimmer cardstock. Adhere to card fronts. Adhere shamrocks and die-cut words.
