Cut cardstock pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Mint Macaron Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" Whisper White Cardstock
- 2" x 4" from Mint Macaron Cardstock
- 1" x 4-1/2" from Whisper White Cardstock
- 3 pieces each 1" x 2-1/2" from Whisper White Cardstock
Insert the 4" x 5-1/4" white rectangle into the Stylish Scroll Embossing Folder. Place the folder with the paper inside on your die cutting and embossing tool and run through the machine.
Insert the Mint Macaron rectangle into the Stylish Scroll Embossing Folder so the scrolls are horizontal on the vertical rectangle. Place the folder with the paper inside on your die cutting and embossing tool and run through the machine.
Adhere the dry embossed Mint Macaron rectangle to the left side of the dry embossed white rectangle.
Cut an 4-1/2" piece of Mint Macaron 1/4" Textile Ribbon.
Lay the ribbon across the white/mint rectangle so it covers the seam between the two pieces. Secure in place on the back with strips of Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Remove the protective backings from the Tear & Tape pieces and add SNAIL to the back of the white rectangle. Adhere the rectangle to the front of the Mint Macaron card.
Mount the "Love It, Live It, Share It" banner from the Stamping Your Way To The Top Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Mint Macaron Ink Pad. Stamp it on one of the 1" x 2-1/2" strips of white cardstock.
Mount the "It's The Best Job Ever!" banner from the Stamping Your Way To The Top Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Mint Macaron Ink Pad. Stamp it on another 1" x 2-1/2" strip of white cardstock.
Mount the "Making Dreams Come True!" banner from the Stamping Your Way To The Top Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Mint Macaron Ink Pad. Stamp it on the remaining 1" x 2-1/2" strip of white cardstock.
Mount the envelope image from the Stamping Your Way To The Top Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Mint Macaron Ink Pad. Stamp it three times on the 1" x 4-1/2" strip of white cardstock remembering to re-ink the stamp each time.
Use Paper Snips to cut out the banners and envelope images by hand. Just cut the shadows off of the envelope images.
WITHOUT ADHERING, lay the banners and envelopes on the card front as shown to figure out the placement and spacing. When happy with the placement, adhere them in place one at time using Stampin' Dimesionals and tiny pieces cut from the edges of the Dimensionals sheet. Make sure the left ends of the banners are hidden by the envelopes.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up a Mint Macaron flower gem from a sheet of Flower Faceted Gems making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the lower right corner of the card front.
