Detailed Instructions:

1. Fold a 8.5" x 5.5" piece of white card stock in half to create a 4.25" x 5.5" card. This is a quarter-fold card and will be the card base. From one sheet of 8.5" x 11" card stock you can make two cards.

2. Cut a patterned sheet of paper to 4" x 5.25". Glue this mat to the front of the card.

3. Using the Storybook cartridge, load the white paper on a mat. You want to cut the black-out frame first. To select this, press the "thank you" button (button 44). Then press the "accent blackout" special feature button. Cut at size 2.75".

4. Load the teal paper on to a mat. To cut the thank you in the frame, once again press the "thank you" button (button 44). Then press the "accent/frame" special feature button. Cut this at size 2.75". Assemble the card by gluing all the components on the front of the card.
