1-1/4” x 4” (pattern #1)
2-3/4” x 4” (pattern #1)

1. Adhere the 5-1/4” x 4” Whisper White cardstock piece to the 5-1/2” x 4-1/4” Pool Party cardstock piece, to create a card base.
2. Adhere the 3-1/4” x 4-1/2” Petal Pink cardstock piece to the center of the card base.
3. Fold the 4-1/4” x 11” Pool Party piece accordion style. There will be 5 panels.
4. Adhere the 1-1/4” x 4” designer series paper piece to the smallest panel (1st panel).

6. Adhere the 2-1/4” x 4” Whisper White cardstock piece to the 4th panel.
Note: I recommend you do your stamping on this piece before adhering it. I used an image & greeting from the Free As A Bird stamp set. I colored in the bird using Pool Party and Petal Pink Stamp[in’ Blends markers.
7. Adhere the 2-3/4” x 4” designer series paper piece to the 5th panel.
8. Put adhesive on the backside of the 5th panel and adhere the accordion piece to the card base.
9. Choose your greeting (I used a greeting from the Free As A Bird stamp set), ink it with Black Memento ink, and stamp it on a piece of Whisper White cardstock.
10. Punch out the greeting using the 1-3/8” circle punch.
11. Punch out a 2” circle and adhere to the greeting.
12. Put a Stampin’ Dimensional or 2 on the far left side of the greeting and adhere to the center of the first panel, as shown in the above photo.
13. Make a bow out of the Petal Pink organdy Striped Ribbon and adhere to the front of the card.
