Instructions:

     Step 1:
Using the pop-up box die set, cut two of the square frames out and one set of strips.Cut this out from heavyweight cardstock.  


Step 2:
To assemble the box, start by glueing the two main square pieces together by one of the tabs. Fold back three of the box flaps and leave the back flap straight. Enclose the box by gluing the second tab. Lastly, glue all the strips across the top of the box 

Step 3:
Cut three stitched squares from patternedpaper and glue to the front three flaps. Fussy cut a decorative panel from the Serenity collection pack.  To give the back panel extra heightglue this to a strip of heavyweight cardstock 6.4cm x 12cm. Insert this strip and glue to the back of the box.  

Step 4:
Fussy cut flowers from the collection pack to form a full bouquet.  Attach clear acetate strips (these were sourced from packaging scraps) to the flowers using double sided tape.  


Step 5:
Adhere the flowers in the pop-up box onto the three strips.  Start building your bouquet fromsmallest to tallest to createextradepth and dimension.  

Step 6:
Finishing touches are to add a Happy birthday sentiment to the front panel, along with some vellum butterflies.  Keep the plastic backing on the butterflies, fold the wings in half and they will hold their position beautifully.
