Curved Edge Envelope Card Front SunflowersCompleted by Frances Dent

I took a plain white card and added a piece of gold card to form a narrow border around the topper, which I printed onto photo paper, and built the layers up using silicone glue after I had made a secret flap from the shaped envelope flap of the topper.

This I did my sticking it to a very thin piece of card, so none of it showed on the front of the card, leaving about and inch overlapping on the straight edge.

I then turned it over and scored and folder the overlap giving a very sharp crease so the flap will lay fairly flat.

I then stuck it in place on the topper using the one inch overlap to do so and left it to thoroughly dry before decoupaging and adding a shaped insert with a secret message.
