1. Place Swirl Stripe Panel onto white card with cutting edge facing up

2. Add the insert to the centre of the frame with the cutting edges facing down - secure using repositional tape

3. Run through the Platinum6 Die Cutting Machine - not the frame will not cut but leave a subtle boarder embossed frame around the insert.

4. Pop up the panel onto a precut card base using 3D Foam Squares.

6. Cut one Ornamental Accents using teal card.

7. Lightly spritz the cut Ornamental Accent using water to add some moisture to the card before embossing

NOTE: this gives a deeper embossing and avoids any cracks that occur occasionally when the paper is dry,

8. Emboss the Ornamental Accent,

9. Remove the extra pieces using the Tool'n One.

10 Add a DODZ Adhesive Dots 3D to the centre of the Ornamental Accent and add to the centre of the panel.

11. Glue a handmade embellishment to the centre of the panel

12. Adhere pearls around the handmade embellishment and to each corner.
