Instructions

• Fold your silver glossy cardstock in half to form your card base.
  The card opens on the bottom.
  Set aside.


• Glue the music paper strip to the bottom of your light blue cardstock.


• Use the ribbon to make a bow with long tails.
  Glue the bow to the right side of the card with a glue dot, positioned at the seam between the music paper and the blue cardstock.


• Wrap the tails of the bow around the front along the seam, then glue them to the back of the blue cardstock.
  The tails should cover the seam. (See photo)
  
  
  


• Punch out two photo corners of blue glitter paper and two photo corners of music paper.


• Adhere the blue photo corners at the bottom.


• Adhere the music photo corners at the top.


• Adhere this whole piece to the front of your card base.


• To make your rosette:


• Run Tim Holtz Sizzlit Rosette Die through the Sizzix Big Shot (or other die machine) using the blue patterned paper.


• Follow the manufacturer's instructions to fold the rosette and put it together.


• NOTE: Tim has a short video on how to do this and its great.
  
  Making the rosette take a couple of tries but is actually pretty easy.
  Practice makes perfect!

• Add a blue button to the center of your rosette.


• Place a line of silver glitter glue around the rosette about 1/8” from the edge.
