Supplies needed:   Yellow Mizuhiki Ribbon Double stick tape 1" wide Cutting mat Sharp craft knife Gold greeting card by JudiKins Gold embossing powder by JudiKins Gold pigmented stamp pad Friends Stamp by Hero Arts Heat gun (embossing tool) Photo Sizzix personal die cutting machine and star die Brads or eyelets

Instructions:
This idea came from Carol Duvall and Cherryl Greene after we did a Mizuhiki Christmas tree card on the Carol Duvall Show. They took one of our ideas and when a step further using the Sizzix machine!

Step 1. Lay down several strips of double-sided carpet tape side by side onto a thin sheet of paper to make it approximately 4" x 4".

Step 2. Peel off the tape liner and lay 4" strips of gold Mizuhiki ribbon one against the other with no gaps until you cover the tape entirely. You will have a solid sheet of ribbon now.

Step 3. Arrange the Mizuhiki sheet onto the star die and put it through the Sizzix machine according to manufacturers directions. If you don't have a die cut machine, you can take your Mizuhiki sheet to a local scrapbook store or craft store and have them cut it for you there. If not, Make a star on the back side of the Mizuhiki sheet and cut it out carefully with a sharp craft knife.The best part of this project is that you now have the star and the frame for two different projects!

Step 4. Take the star frame and trim edges with your craft knife until you have a nice little square and place the photo on the back. Trim edges if needed..

Step 5. Stamp the word "Friends" on the gold card and emboss with gold powder for the raised effect.

Step 6. Use the double sided tape to lay the picture frame onto the card.

Step 7. Punch four holes on each corner of the square and top of the card. The Yasutomo Handi-Punch works great for this.

Step 8. Insert four gold brads or eyelets to finish.
