5. Put tape onto the back of the bottom edge of the large tulip piece and push through the cut slot, remove the tape and stick to the flap at the centre of the base. Attach the small tulip to the side and the border piece to the front.
   
6. Stamp the greeting, cut out and add to the card front , along with a bow for decoration.
