This card opens on the side. Fold the brown cardstock in half.  Adhere the 3 ¾ x 7 ¾ white cardstock to the brown cardstock (card base). Adhere the 3 5/8 x 7 5/8 brown print to the white cardstock. Adhere the 3 ½ x 7 ½ diamond print to the brown print. Adhere 3 ¼ x 3 ¼ salmon dot print to diamond print ¾” from the top.  Adhere 1 x 3 ½ white cardstock (punched edge) butting it up to the bottom of the salmon dot piece. Set aside

Adhere the brown print circle to the dk. brown scallop circle. Set aside.

Stamp Lamb using Onxy Black ink on 2 x 2 1/2 white cardstock, twice. Stamp the tulip on 1 ½ x 1 ½ white cardstock. Stamp the words Happy Spring on 1 ½ x 1 ½ white cardstock. Using what ever you like color, color image. I like color pencils. On the second lamb just color the left paw. Cut the lamb out using scissors, right on the black line. On the second lamb cut only the paw you colored. Cut out the tulip. Cut out the words leaving a little white edge. Using foam mounting tape stick the words to sm. brown print die cut piece.

Use a mini glue dot to stick tulip on left paw of lamb. Use another glue dot to stick the second paw on top of the tulip. It makes it look like she’s hold the tulip. Using foam mounting tape on the back of the lamb. To stick it to the circle die cut pieces. Adhere it to the center of the salmon piece, centering.

Using an exacto knife cut a ½” slit in the side of the card on the fold where the white punch edge is. Put the ribbon thru the slit. And tie it into a bow.

Adhere words to card.

Happy card making!!!
