Materials used

• Pearlescent blue single fold deckle edge greetings card 104mm x 152mm (4¼ x 6 in)

• Thin pearlescent silver card
• Pale blue mulberry paper

Method

The mulberry paper rectangle has a feathered edge. This edge is created by taking a small paintbrush dipped in water and drawing the outline of the rectangle on a larger piece of mulberry paper. Use just enough water so the paper tears apart easily leaving an attractive feathered edge.

Mount the mulberry paper on the card with adhesive.

Add the three window stickers using the illustration as a guide.

Punch three small daisy heads from pearlescent silver card. Mount each of these on a clear window sticker. Fix with adhesive.

Add a small jewel to the centre of each daisy head. Fix with adhesive.

Add a silver 'Invitation' sticker below the mulberry paper rectangle.
