Directions~
        Note~I highly recommend watching the tutorial video to understand were to cut on the scored lines and to assemble.

1. For the main part you will need 1 piece of 8 1/2" x 11" Marina Mist card stock. Lay it horizontal and score at 4", 4 1/2". Turn the card stock vertical score it at 1/2", 1" on both sides. You will need to cut on the scored lines on the sides on only half of the card stock. Note~ Watch the Tutorial Video to understand this part. I took the stamp from Best Friends Forever Stamp Set; inked in Marina Mist and stamped all over the Marina Mist card stock. Then apply Sticky Strip to your tabs.

2. Cut 2 4 1/8" x 9 1/2" Long Envelopes down to 9" seal the side together that you cut on so you have an envelope again. Seal the two flaps of the envelope together back to back. Snail on one side of one envelope and attach to the inside of the Marina Mist card stock, then fold the Marina Mist card stock on the scored lines and assemble.

3. Cut 1 piece of Very Vanilla card stock 3 3/4" x 8 1/2". Sponged the edges with Sahara Sand ink.

4. Cut 1 piece of Sahara Sand card stock 2" x 8 1/2", punch one side with the Pinking Hearts Border Punch. Then snail the Sahara Sand card stock to the Very Vanilla card stock. Wrap some 1 1/4" Marina Mist Stripped Grosgrain Ribbon around the top of the Sahara Sand card stock and tie. I then snailed the Very Vanilla card stock to the front of the Coupon Holder.

Take the stamp from Raining Flowers Stamp Set; ink it in Regal Rose and stamp 2 flowers onto Very Vanilla card stock. Take the stamp from Raining Flowers Stamp Set; ink it in Marina Mist and stamp onto Very Vanilla card stock. Cut all 3 flowers out. Using the 3/4" Circle Punch; punch 3 circles out in Sahara Sand for the flower centers. I added Jewels Basic Rhinestones to the centers of the Sahara Sand. I placed a Stampin' Dimensional on the back of each circle and attached to the centers of the flowers. I placed Stampin' Dimensionals on the back of the flowers and attached to the front of the coupon holder.

I took the Decorative Label Punch; punched out 1 piece of Sahara Sand card stock. Then cut it in half did my labeling for certain coupons with the Marina Mist Stampin' Write Marker then snailed each tab to an envelope. To finish it off I added some Jewels Basic Rhinestones to the tabs.
