Cut card stock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Watermelon Wonder Card Stock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Cucumber Crush Card Stock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" of strawberries and vines on white background design from Fruit Stand Designer Series Paper
- 2" x 3" from Whisper White Card Stock
Adhere the designer paper to the Cucumber Crush rectangle and then to the front of the Watermelon Wonder card.
Cut a 5" piece of both Cucumber Crush 5/8" Mini Striped Ribbon and of Watermelon Wonder 5/8" Mini Striped Ribbon. Trim the ends at angles.
Place a small piece of Tear & Tape Adhesive across the center of the card horizontally. Remove the protective backing and adhere the Cucumber Crush ribbon piece to it.
Place another piece of Tear & Tape Adhesive across the center of the card front to it crosses over the Cucumber Crush ribbon at a slight angle. Remove the protective backing. Adhere the Watermelon Wonder ribbon to it so it crosses over the green ribbon at a slight angle.
Mount the "spoiling you" sentiment from the Carousel Birthday Set on Block C. Use the brush tip of the Watermelon Wonder Marker to ink up the words "Spoiling You." Use the brush tip of the Cucumber Crush Marker to ink up everything else. Breathe on the stamp to moisten the ink. Stamp it in the center of the white rectangle.
Pick out the smooth oval framelit from the Layering Ovals Framelits that cuts out an oval that is 1-1/2" x 2-1/2". Place the stamped white rectangle on a Cutting Pad on top of the Magnetic Platform on your Big Shot. Place the oval framelit on top so the sentiment is centered in the oval. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot.
Use the side of the brush tip of the Watermelon Wonder Marker to outline the edge of the oval.
Pick out one of the Cucumber Crush doilies from the 2015-2017 In Color Doilies. Make sure you only have one, they like to stick together.
Adhere the sentiment oval across the center of the doily.
Adhere the doily and sentiment oval to the center of the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.
