Method

Wire detailCut a square of satin card and mount it on the front of the greeting card using the illustration as a guide.

Pick out the outline of the square in clear glitter glue.

Bend the gold wire to the flower shape using the detail illustration as a guide. A loop of wire in the center of the petals is threaded with red beads.
