Instructions
On the long side, score the largest piece of mossy meadow at 2 1/2", 5" and 7 1/2" (Only burnish the two out score lines, just gently fold the centre one). Score the 1" x 6" piece at 1/2" and 5 1/2" and the 3" piece at 1/2", 1", 2" and 2 1/2", fold and burnish all of these score lines.
Add all the mats and layers to the panels, I've added two white panel either side of the centre score on the back to write your message. 
BEFORE you add the two centre ones on the inside of the card, take the 6" x 1" piece and fold under the two 1/2" sections at the end, add glue and attach across the centre of the card in between the folds at 2 1/2" and 7 1/2" to form a bendy, section across the middle of the card to add your decoration to. Then add the two centre panels of dsp under the band but over the piece that is stuck to the card to hide it.

I forgot to do this on the video, so you can see the hinge pieces on my card.
Take the 3" piece of card and fold from one end in valley, mountain, mountain, valley, add glue to the underside of this and adhere to the band going across the card in the centre, either side of the 5" score line. This is what will hold the decoration in place in the centre of the card and 'pop out' when displayed.
Stamp a flower and sentiment on the 2 3/4" square piece of white, adhere to the mossy meadow layer and add to the pop out section in the centre of the card.
Stamp a sentiment and flowers on the remaining piece of white (because I had issues with my stamping in the video, I've turned this into a diamond shape on the front of the card but you could leave it square, or die cut circles or whatever shape you want). Adhere this to the mossy meadow mat layer.
Close up the card and gently wrap the belly band piece around the card and glue the ends. Add the topper in place using dimensionals across the belly band and then add to the card.
Add some butterflies and rhinestones as required.
I do hope that you like my card and will give it a try. Please pop over and see what Donna and Victoria have made this week too.
