Exquisite Roses Explosion Card KitCompleted by Doreen Bell

I printed onto 160g card which I felt was strong enough for this card. I chose to build up the front card rather than print out the ready to use one but they are both beautiful.

I followed the instructions to add the front and back panels together then scored and folded the insert. I used wet glue to give me a bit of time to make sure it was in the right position but DST is fine to use too.

Once I had the exploding inner in I added the layers to the front of the card.

The first two layers I put on flat then used 3D foam pads to add the rest. I finished off with gems and little flowers from my stock. I made up the envelope and there are instructions for this included. This makes a really impressive card.
