Cut 20cm/8in x 16cm/6.5in burlap sheets.

Print and cut the cards that will be placed inside the burlap in smaller dimensions.

Stamp the card with the crown stamp and make shades to the edges of it with the help of a sponge dabber and the colour of your choice.

Place a small drop of hot glue at the back of the card, on the top sides only and set on the burlap sheet.

Turn the burlap sheet on the other side and do the same with the damask tissuestock sheets that are cut in 7.5cm/2.75in width and as long as the short side of the burlap sheet is. (in this case 16cm / 6.5in)

Cut the lace in 10cm/4in long pieces, ply in the center and secure with the wire of a flower. Attach the rest of the flowers and the pearl strung.

Roll the burlap (starting from the side that the papers are glued) and use a rubber band to prevent it from unfolding.

Tie the flowers compοsition with the satin ribbon.

Closing remarks: The white cardstock is 160gr, as heavier will crease the card when rolling it. Flowers can be fixed with hot glue on the rolled burlap for a faster and easier result.
