• Fussy cut the Let It Bee sunflower adhere over the patterned paper.
• Cut out the sentiment border from the paper pad and adhere across the front.  I also made sunflowers from an ole die and used the yellow pattern paper to cut out the flowers.
• Cut out a Happy Birthday sentiment with gold metallic paper and black cardstock.  Glue the sentiments slightly together with some black showing to make a shadow and adhere to card.
• Use a hot glue gun to adhere metal bees and the handmade flowers to the front of the card.
• Inside Instructions.  Cut out a 5" x 7" patterned paper from the collection and adhere to both sides of the inside.
• Cut out 4" x 6" journal images  from the collection and adhere to both sides of the inside.
• Cut out sentiment borders to go across the journal images.
• Type the sentiment and print.  I used a 12 Font and sponged on Distress yellow and orange ink slightly around the cut out sentiment and adhere it to the center of another cut out journal image.  
• I fussy cut around the sunflowers of a journal image and glued the typed sentiment behind the sunflowers.
