triangles and three card stock triangles by placing cutting track in top left mounting hole and

Adhere card stock to chipboard.

2. Scallops: use Free Style Mouse to cut free hand scallops from Swiss Dot card stock with
#2801 straight blade. (Tip: for uniform scallops, use cutting track to draw a pencil line guide
on back of card stock at 3” and cut staying inside this line). Adhere to top of three triangles.

3. Flowers, leaves, vines: use Ultimate Trimmer and Free Style Mouse. With cutting track in
vertical position, score card stock with #2811 blade at 3 inches. Fold card stock and use Free

Copic. Embellish flower centers with these. Add pipe cleaners as vines.

5. Lady Bug: Punch two circles using larger punch: one from black, one from red. Cut red

stock, adhere as head. Adhere ladybug to second triangle. Draw antenna.

6. Use Crop-A-Dile to punch holes at top corners of triangles. Add Eyelets. Cut ribbon into
