Melodies of Nature - Lilac Chrysanthemums Book Easel KitCompleted by Margaret McCartney

Occasion
Birthday / Birthday Floral

I printed the design onto good quality 255gsm photographic paper and cut it out. I scored and folded the design as instructed. I assembled the easel using strong double sided tape. I added the decoupage using thin foam tape.

I added a blob of silicone glue under the wings of the butterflies to give more definition. I added the panel to the easel using strong double sided tape. I added the greetings using thin foam tape. The greeting on the base acts as a stopper when the easel is opened.

I added three gems from my craft box to the top right hand corner gems on the design. I added card to the underside of the base to give more support. This lovely design also comes with a matching envelope. I added glitter to the centre of the flowers to enhance this gorgeous design.
