Cut card stock pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Tip Top Taupe Card Stock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Very Vanilla Card Stock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" from Tip Top Taupe Card Stock
- 2-1/2" x 3" from Very Vanilla Card Stock
- 2-1/4" x 1-1/2" from Mint Macaron Card Stock
Place a piece of scratch paper on top of the Stampin' Pierce Mat and then place the Tip Top Taupe rectangle on top. Stamping on the pierce mat will help you get a better image with the photopolymer stamps and the scratch paper will protect the mat from ink when you stamp off the edges of the card stock.
Mount three of the lace images from the Delicate Details Photopolymer Set on Block I at the same time. Put the large scallop edged lace image on the block first as close to the top of the block as you can get with the points of the lace pointing up. Then, put the skinny lace with straight edges on both sides image on next. Make sure the loops are pointing up and the stamp is as close to the previous stamp as it will go. Finally, put the small scallop edged lace image on. Make sure the points of the lace are pointing down and it is as close to the previous stamp as it will go.
Ink up the lace images with the VersaMark Pad. Stamp them onto the Tip Top Taupe layer so they go off the right side of the card stock. Make sure the large scallop edged lace is on top. Leave about 1" unstamped to the left of the lace and about 1/2" unstamped below the lace.
Sprinkle on White Stampin' Emboss Powder. Tap off excess and return it to the jar.
Use the Heat Tool to melt the embossing powder completely. It will be smooth and shiny when completely melted.
Adhere the heat embossed Tip Top Taupe layer to the large Very Vanilla rectangle. Then, adhere it to the front of the Tip Top Taupe card.
Pick out the large open oval tag framelit from the Timeless Tags Thinlits. Place the small vanilla rectangle on a Cutting Pad on top of the Platform on your Big Shot. Place the tag thinlit on top. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot.
Place the small piece of Mint Macaron card stock on top of the Platform on your Big Shot. Place the tag thinlit on top so you will get a 1/2 oval with the bottom of the thinlit (no tag hole). Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot.
Pick out the arch of leaves thinlit from the Timeless Tags Thinlits. Place the vanilla tag cut out on a Cutting Pad on top of the Magnetic Platform on your Big Shot. Place the arch of leaves thinlit on top so the arch is along the bottom of the tag cut out. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot. Use the Die Brush to remove pieces if needed.
Place the cut out vanilla tag on the Stampin' Pierce Mat.
Mount one of the three line sentiments of your choice from the That's the Tag Photopolymer Set on Block A. Ink it up with the Tip Top Taupe Ink Pad. Stamp the sentiment in the center of the oval tag.
When happy with your stamping on the tag, adhere the vanilla tag over the half oval of Mint Macaron so the mint color will show through the arch of leaves cut outs. Use Paper Snips to trim off any excess card stock that peeks out from behind the vanilla tag.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the tag to the right side of the card over the embossed lace images so the bottom of the oval tag is just below the bottom line of lace and the right side of the tag is about 3/4" in from the right side of the Tip Top Taupe layer.
Cut an 8" piece of Mint Macaron 3/8" Sheer Linen Ribbon. Tie a small bow. Trim the ends. Adhere the bow to the top of the tag so it hides the hole using a Mini Glue Dot.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere a Falling in Love Embellishment to the lower right side of the tag so it hangs off the right side just a bit.
Adhere three small Rhinestone Basic Jewels randomly to the upper left corner of the card front.
