  2. Attach the Glisten paper to your cardstock.  Using your iron, outline the paper with Wintergreen ribbon.  (Tip: start in the middle of the bottom side, so all your corners have matching bevels) Add a second border of Pearl braid around the outside.  Gently position your stars around the card.  Use the Filigree braid to create a wavy line around your card, running beneath each star so they look strung on the thread. Finish your card by adding a wavy border around the outside edge of the cardstock.
