Instructions
  1. Cut out the base of the card from red cardstock 5 ½ x 11 inches.
  2. Fold the card in half.
  3. Cut a piece of red decorative paper 4 ½ x 4 ½
  4. Place one half of the card on top of the wavy line texture plate. Use embossing stylus and follow the lines of the texture plate. Make sure you have textured the entire front of the card!
  5. Using the Heart 3 in 1 corner punch, punch out each corner of the 4 ½ inch square decorative paper. Adhere the decorative paper on top of the wavy line textured side of the card.
  6. Next you want to add the heart texture to a piece of cardstock – just enough to cut out the tag. Take the heart texture plate, put a piece of cardstock over it and rub the embossing tool on the cardstock until the design is revealed.
  7. Place the craft matte on a table. Next put the heart embossed red cardstock on the craft matte. Place the Shape Cutter tag template on top of the cardstock. Cut out a tag using the Shape Cutter tool. Use the ¼ inch round hand punch to punch a hole in the top of the tag.
  8. Angle the tag on the decorative paper and adhere it to the card using foam adhesive dots.
  9. Set up the Mini ShapeBoss with the stencil it came with – adjusting the orange pegs. Slip a piece of red cardstock in between the two stencils. Emboss the heart design using the embossing tool.
  10. Cut the heart design into a square using scissors or your paper trimmer. Use the heritage 3 in 1 corner punch to punch out each corner of the small square. Mount the red square with a foam adhesive dot and place on a slightly larger piece of white mulberry paper.
  11. Adhere the small square and mulberry paper to the tag on the card.
  12. Pull fibers through the hole at the top of the tag.
