Step 1:   
Trim a piece of white cardstock to measure 5 7/8 x 8”.  Place the long side at the top of your scoreboard & score at 4 & 6”. Fold on the scorelines, beginning with a mountain fold then a valley fold.

      Step 2:  
Find the UCP2989 Holly In The Hall paper & trim two pieces to measure 5/8 x 1 ¾”. Adhere these two pieces (blue chevron side showing) to the two small panels of your card. Trim another piece of the blue chevron paper to measure 3 ¾ x 5 5/8”. Adhere to the largest panel

Step 3:   
Trim two pieces of white cardstock to measure 3 ½ x 5 3/8”. Adhere to the very left small panel only & the largest panel on the inside of your card. Find the Night Before (UCP2991) paper & trim two of the 4 x 5 5/8” panels to measure 3 ¼ x 5 1/8” (I have used the ones with butterflies & the one with red flowers). Use a black ink pad to run around the outside of the panels you have just cut out. Adhere to the two white panels on your card.

Step 4:
Use the stencil & a fineline black pen & trace around the inside of a couple of the stencil cut outs at the top & bottom of your front panel.

Step 5:
Cut out the two butterflies from the second sheet of panels & adhere them with their wings lifted to the butterflies on the front panel of your card.
