Instructions:

1.        Fold each of the small pieces of DSP at an angle to make a triangle, the top point of the triangle is the most important part as the remainder of the triangle will be mostly covered.  Make sure to score it well on the fold lines as you will not want too much bulk when finished.

2      Determine what order you would like to put the triangles down on the template.  Mine are numbered below:

a.       #1 – Strawberry Slush

b.      #2 – Pistachio Pudding

c.       #3 – Tempting Turquoise

d.      #4 – Crisp Cantaloupe

3.       Cut the Small Circle out of the black cardstock using the circle Framelit and the BigShot

4.       Cut the Large Circle out of the white cardstock using the larger circle Framelit and the BigShot

5.       Using removable tape, attach the template provided onto your work surface.

6.       Using removable tape, attach the black piece of cardstock on top of the template aligning it up around the circle on the template.

7.       Beginning with your #1 triangle, turn the triangle over with the smooth side down and align it with the #1 triangle listed on your template.  The open portion of the triangle should be facing upward towards you.

8.       Using tape or other adhesive attach the first triangle to the black cardstock.  Make sure not to get any adhesive on the template.

9.       Continue attaching the other #1 triangles to the remaining spots marked #1 and adhering with adhesive.

10.   Attach the #2 triangles using adhesive to the spots marked #2 and adhering with adhesive.  Make sure not to get any adhesive on the template.  The adhesive can overlap part of the #1 triangle as long as it does not cover up the portion that is inside the black circle.

11.   Attach the #3 triangles using adhesive to the spots marked #3.  Make sure that the #3 triangles are going over the #1 and #2 triangles appropriately.

12.   Attach the #4 triangles using adhesive to the spots marked #4. 

a.       When adhering these make sure that the points come together in the middle so it will lay correctly when finished.

13.   Make sure that all triangles are secured and carefully pull the black cardstock circle off of the template.

14.   Turn over and you will see the design that was on the template.

15.   Stamp the Thank you on the White cardstock prior to attaching to the black piece.

16.   Align the white cardstock over the black cardstock and secure with adhesive.

17.   Using dimensionals along top and bottom of white cardstock attach to card base.
