Book Binding card with Hollyhock flowers

 Hello,

I love the Layering Hollyhocks Dies and couldn't wait to try this card out. I used the Pretty Prints because they coordinated with the colors I made the flowers with, Cherry Cobbler and Flirty Flamingo.  Scroll down to the bottom for a full video tutorial.

You start with a card base measuring 4-1/4" X 11" score it at 4-1/2" and 5-1/2".

Fold along the score lines so it looks like this:
I used the Layering Hollyhocks dies to cut the fronts and backs both in Cherry Cobbler and Flirty Flamingo. First, I applied the Adhesive Sheets to the back of the cardstock and ran it through the SU! Cutting and Embossing machine. First the Cherry Cobbler.
Then, the Flirty Flamingo.
See how the release paper from the Adhesive Sheets peels off? It even takes off some of the pieces that remained in the die cut.
And, Ta-Dah! Instant Sticker, no glue mess, and no tiny pieces to "poke" out!!
Which one do you like better? This or That?
Next, place some glue on the fold,
And sandwich the larger die cuts in the fold.
Next. you'll need a piece of cardstock and DSP for the front.
And a piece of vellum that you will emboss with some White Embossing powder.  Check out the video tutorial below for a good tip in storing the powder for easy clean up.
Here is the finished product.
And the inside
