(4) Cut a slightly larger oval from the black cardstock and layer stamped oval onto it with glue stick.

(5) Trim black cardstock to six and one-half inches by ten inches; score with paper creaser and ruler and fold to make a five inch by six and one half inch card.

(6) Adhere the larger squares to the front of the card with a glue stick, using the picture as a guide then layering the smaller squares in the center of the larger ones.

(7) Finally, adhere the saying to the front of the card.
