Window Sheet--1 1/4" x 2"

Burnish score marks well. Adhere the DSP to the card base.

Adhere the Design #2 DSP to the Misty Moonlight. Be sure to have glue about 1" from the bottom edge. We are going to use paper trimmer to cut thru both layers.
At the bottom of the DSP 5/8" from the bottom, start cutting 1/2" with trimmer and cut to 4 3/4"

Add the foam adhesive strips to the back, as per diagram. THE STRIPS NEED TO BE ABOVE THE SLIT (CLOSER TO THE TOP).
The long strip needs to be able to slid between the foam strips. DO NOT PUT FOAM STRIPS WHERE THE PULL TAB HAS TO COME THRU.

Apply tear and tape to the bottom of the window sheet and adhere to the white pull strip.

Stamp the truck with Real Red, tires with Smokey Slate and punch with Trucking Along Builder Punch.

Stamp the tree in Shaded Spruce and die cut.

Place the white pull strip into the gutter and thread the top of the acetate thru the slit to the outside.
Position the truck along the slit, add tear and tape and adhere. Pull the pull tab out and stamp close to the left edge. Punch two Misty Moonlight tags, trim to fit and adhere one to each side of the pull (to add strength). YOU WILLHAVE TO BECARE THAT TAB OR THE TREE ARE NOT HANGING OVER THE EDGE, SO THAT IT FITS INTO THE ENVELOP.

Adhere tree into the back of the pickup.

Stamp the sentiment on the inside with Night of Navy.

Finish with placing embellishment with "Pearlized Enamel Effects in White". SET ASIDE TO DRY.
