   Apply adhesive carefully around the edges of the die-cut aperture on the reverse side of the card front. Position the vellum sheet behind the aperture and press firmly to secure, ensuring the glue remains hidden from the front.

Astuces de l'émission

• Apply glue only around the aperture edges to keep adhesive hidden and maintain the clean appearance of the window.
• If you run out of metallic cardstock, create gold by applying a yellow ink pad first, then layering confetti ink over the top for a rich, lustrous finish.
• Position embellishments like enamel dots in a diagonal line to create movement and lead the viewer's eye through your design.
