It opens like this - the card slips out to write your message on. It would also hold a gift card!
The pocket is held together using a strip of Tear & Tape Adhesive split lengthwise to 1/8" & placed along both edges. I like a fun fold card that stays closed when it should, that's why the circle is adhered to the bottom half of the card with Dimensionals and the top flap tucks under it.
There's not a lot of stamping here, just the greeting and the flowers and leaves - the pair of birds is cut from Designer Paper!
The flowers & leaves are stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Stampin' Blends in Petal Pink (light & dark), Calypso Coral (light) and Old Olive (light & dark). There are no dies that go with Free as a Bird, so I fussy-cut them. I brushed the flowers with Wink of Stella and added a gem to the center of each.
