Method

There is a tutorial on using Mola templates at Mola Cutting. This card uses one of the four designs found on Mola template number 4.

The white greetings card is cut using the Mola template then backed with pearlescent red paper. This is cut by hand following the shape of the first cut. Patterned Han-Ji paper is used on the bottom layer.

The inside of the front leaf of the greetings card is hidden with a white paper insert. This is fixed to the inside front leaf with adhesive. The other leaf of the insert is left free.

Add a border of gold chain link sticker around the pattern rectangle on the front of the card.

Add a small jewel to the centre of each of the two flower patterns.
