he loves me - yeah, yeah, yeah

to make this card, start with a 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 in of cardstock for the card base, (11 x 4 1/4 in folded in half). cut out a 3 3/4 x 5 1/2 in rectangle. cut another rectangle, this time 5 1/2 x 3 1/4-1/2. glue the smallest rectangle to the next larger rectangle, leaving a border on the top and bottom. using a punch, diecut, cricut or freehand, cut out three flowers and a few extra petals. attach the flowers to the card using a brad on the double rectangle. cut out a few leaves. glue the leaves under the flowers so they can be seen, and glue the extra petals to the card so they look like they are falling. glue the double rectangle to the card, leaving a small border on the top, and just over one inch of space on the bottom. using diecuts, a cricut (george and basic shapes) or punches, cut out the letters to spell he loves me (set the letters to be 1 in. if using a cricut). glue the letters to the bottom of the card, overlapping as necessary to make space. leave a little space on the folded edge of the card. cut a piece of ribbon, and tie it around the card at the inside edge.
