How to make
Take a piece of patterned paper from the XOXO paper pack, we used a pice of the spotty paper. Using a ruler and pencil, measure and mark X x Xcm on the back – the size of the card blank.
Cut out, then stick the patterned paper to the card front, smoothing out to get rid of any air bubbles. Trim off any excess paper that hangs over the edge.
Draw round a saucer onto a piece of white paper – or use the back of the patterned paper. Carefully cut out the circle.
Using our photograph as a guide, write 'I really' lightly with a pencil. You could have a practise on a piece of paper first.
Go over the pencil with a black fine-line pen. Once the ink is dry, rub away any pencil marks that are still showing.
Stick the paper circle to the centre of the card front. Then stick on the word 'LOVE' from the gold foil phrase stickers – start with the 'O' and 'V' first to make sure the letters are stuck centrally.
Finally add a 'you' sticker from the sentiment glitter sticker pack.
