- Using the small Blending Brush and the Pumpkin Pie ink pad, lightly sponge ink in the lower right corner of the Basic White cardstock mat.
- Stamp the sentiment onto the 1″ x 3-1/4″ Pool Party cardstock and run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine; die-cut using the banner from the Happy Hibiscus dies. Adhere to the upper left corner of the Basic White cardstock using adhesive.
