Instructions:

1. Lay a strip of 1/4" Treasure Tape along the top and bottom edge of the card front. Remove the red liner to expose the sticky tape, and lay the polka-dot ribbon on the sticky strips.

2. Cut out a cross shape from the yellow construction paper, making sure the cross is 3/4 of an inch wide.

3. Lay pieces of 3/4" Treasure Tape on your purple cardstock in the shape of a cross. Remove the red liner to expose the sticky part, and lay the construction paper cross right on top.

4. Lay strips of 3/4" Treasure Tape on top of the yellow cross. Remove the red liner to expose the sticky top.

5. Outline the cross with the #32 Braid, pressing the thread onto the tape to adhere.

6. Cut up or tear pieces of wrapping paper and lay on the yellow cross, to resemble a mosaic.

7. When decorating is complete, lay your card in a shallow pan or tray and cover remaining areas with Diamond Beadlets.
