Song Title - How Sweet It Is to Be Loved By You

1. Start with a 5 x 7" card base

2. Cut a piece of patterned paper to 4.5" x 6.5".

3. Adhere a piece of patterned paper cut to 4.25" x 6.25" to the front of the paper in step 2.

4. Use permanent markers and a ruler to draw stripes on the ribbon of your choice (lighter colored ribbon works best).

4. Tie ribbon around the patterned paper from step 3.

5. Cut a heart out of cardstock and add adhesive to the front (I used a Xyron machine).

6. Wind the twine from the outside of the heart towards the inside until covered.

7. Attach a skewer (painted white using distress stain) to the back of the heart with strong adhesive (I used Beacon's 3 in 1 glue).

8. Embellish with die cuts and stamps as desired.

9. Adhere cardfront to the base of the card.
