• Mini Glue Dots®
• Cream card base
• Patterned paper & stickers (Basic Grey - True Love collection)

Here's what you do:

1. Layer patterned paper onto cardstock base. Adhere using Ultra-Thin Glue Dots.
2. Add layering pieces of patterned paper using Ultra-Thin Glue Dots.
3. Adhere stickers on bottom and upper right corners. Add sentiment sticker.
4. Add letter stickers.
