​I first created the greeting using two different fonts, one for the capital letters and another for the body of the words.
I then pasted the digi image between the greeting words.

​

​I had the collective image at the top of the A4 card initially and printed it off like this but that was a mistake as I wonted a single layer card, however all was not lost as I decided to mount the digi image as a 3D so used the first print for this and then moved the collective image down to the bottom of the A4 card and printed again.

​Because I had an image it was quite easy to place the gold thread and the ribbon and it was easy to see where both the thread and the ribbon would peep out from the coloured image. 
I attached both the ribbon and the thread with some double sided tape putting the tape down first then just laying the ribbon and thread over it.

​This photo is a bit grainy but shows the digi image before I fussy cut it. Once that was done I mounted the image onto some white craft foam with Tombo Multi glue, let it bond under pressure for about ten minutes then mounted that sandwich onto the card base placing the coloured image directly over the image on the base with the ribbon and thread. 
the only other thing left to do was to add some Nuvo drops to the card to give it a bit of added interest
