Very nice card! Looks like extra work (with the acetate and having to decorate the insides as well), but it was well worth the effort. Thanks for sharing.

ok I knew i should have put the know hows with this one lol..
pink cs 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" (folded)
3 pieces purple cs 4 1/8"x5 3/8"
3 pieces white cs 4" x 5 1/4"
2 pieces purple cs 1 1/2" x 2 3/4"
2 pieces pink cs 1 1/4" x 2 1/2"
2 pieces white cs 1" x 2 1/4"
1 piece purple cs 2 5/8" x 3 5/8" (for the inside verse)
1 piece pink cs 2 3/8" x 3 3/8" (verse)
1 piece purple cs 2 1/8" x 3 1/8" (verse)
1 piece white cs 1 7/8" 2 3/4" (verse)
1 piece white cs 2 1/8" x 2 1/8"
1 piece acetate 3" x 4 1/4"
1. Then on all the white cs i used itty bitty backgrounds .
2. then cut out the frames.. the measurements are the size of the outside border- the pink main card has a 1" frame- 2 pieces of the purple have a 7/8" frame and 2 pieces of the white have a 3/4" frame..
3. mount a purple and white frame to the front of the card.
4. attach acetate to the inside of t he card and then mount the other 2 purple and pink frames to the inside.
on the 2 pieces of white 1" x 2 1/4" stamp what ever u like. i did hearts
5. mount the stamped images to the 1 1/4" x 2 1/2" pieces of pink..
6. mount the above to the 1 1/2" x 2 3/4" pieces of purple
7. mount the stamped images to the front and the inside of the card on the acetate make sure they line up..
(this next part i didn't like but u can still do)
on the piece of 2 1/8" x 2 1/8" white can stamp happy birthday or what ever really.. cut the piece in half, separating happy and the birthday.. then mount the happy and the birthday on pieces of pink and attach to the front of the card..
8. attach the 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" piece of purple and the 4" x 5 1/4" piece of white to the inside right of the card
9. stamp a verse on the 1 7/8" x 2 3/4" piece of white and mount the the remaining pieces of card stock.
10. mount to the inside right of the card.
11. add anything u like to it to finish how u see fit.
