Cut cardstock pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Pineapple Punch Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Whisper White Cardstock
- 2-1/4" x 2-1/2" from Whisper White Cardstock
Mount the dashed lines image from the Birthday Backgrounds Set on Block D. Carefully use the brush tips of the 2018-2020 In Color Stampin' Write Markers to ink up the lines, using a different color for each line. Breathe on the stamp to moisten the ink and stamp the image on the large, vertical white rectangle about 1/2" from the top and right edges. Make sure the lines are horizontal. Clean the stamp with the Simply Shammy and/or Stampin' Mist and Stampin' Scrub, but leave the stamp on the block.
Re-ink the dashed lines image on Block D using the brush tips of the 2018-2020 In Color Stampin' Write Markers again to ink up the lines, using a different color for each line. Make sure the bottom line is colored with the Lovely Lipstick Marker. Breathe on the stamp to moisten the ink and stamp the image on the large, vertical white rectangle just below the first stamped image. Make sure the lines are horizontal and the red line is on the bottom. Clean the stamp and put it away.
Put the stamped white rectangle on some Grid Paper on your work surface to protect the work surface from ink. Make sure the white rectangle is vertical and the stamped lines are on the right side.
Mount the set of three pens image from the Crafting Forever Set on Block I. Carefully use the brush tip of the Lovely Lipstick Marker to ink up only the striped pen image. Make a little mark on the Block where the tip of the inked up pen is so you can see this through the block. Breathe on the stamp to moisten the ink and stamp the image on the large, vertical white rectangle so the tip of the pen is near the left end of the dotted red line at the bottom of the previously stamped image and the pen is angled slightly upward to the left and goes off the left side of the cardstock. Use the little mark you made on the block to help you know where the tip of the pen is located.
Adhere the large, stamped white rectangle to the front of the Pineapple Punch card.
Mount the "Do something creative every day." sentiment from the Crafting Forever Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Blueberry Bushel Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the smaller white rectangle.
Pick out the medium, fancy label die that cuts out a label that is 1-5/8" x 2-1/8" from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. Put it on top of the stamped sentiment on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool so the sentiment is centered. Run through the tool.
Use the side of the brush tip of the Grapefruit Grove Marker to carefully outline the edges of the sentiment cut out.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the outlined sentiment cut out to the front of the card so it overlaps the right edge of the stamped lines a bit near the top.
Cut a 9" piece of Call Me Clover 1/8" Grosgrain Ribbon.
Tie a small bow in the center of the ribbon. Trim the ends.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the bow to the front of the card so it overlaps the lower left edge of the sentiment cut out at a slight angle.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 3 colors and sizes of dots from a sheet of Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere them randomly to the front of the card.
