Take a piece of 13.5x14.5cm patterned paper and distress and ink the edges. Affix to the card blank.

2

From kraft cardstock, die-cut one of the largest of the layering dies. Using the next size down, die-cut another from patterned paper and distress and ink the edges. Matt and layer the die-cuts.

3

Using the larger shape from the free gift die, place the oval over the centre of the matt and layered die-cuts. Run through die-cutting machine. Rotate die 180°, line up the oval and again run through die-cutting machine to make an oval aperture. Distress and ink the edges of the aperture.

4

Using the decorative frame from the free gift die, die-cut four frames from white cardstock, then snip into them so you’re left with just the swirly sections. Attach them to the back of the layered die-cuts to create a custom decorative frame as shown in the picture. Adhere the panel to the card front using 3D foam pads.

5

Stamp your chosen sentiment, cut out with scissors and distress the edges. Attach to some hessian ribbon and add to the card front as shown. Add a paper flower and string pearls to finish.
