 * 1) <span style="color: #666666; color: #666666; font-family: verdana,arial,sans-serif; font-family: verdana,arial,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #1180b7; font-family: verdana,arial,sans-serif; text-decoration: none;">__Print out pattern__ (<span style="color: #1180b7; font-family: verdana,arial,sans-serif; text-decoration: none;">See photo .) .

 * 2) <span style="color: #666666; color: #666666; font-family: verdana,arial,sans-serif; font-family: verdana,arial,sans-serif;">Fold the yellow flower where the dashed lines on the pattern indicate.

Insert the ends of the ribbon into the holes of the left flap and pull taught. Tie a bow on the front of the card. Trim ends.
