TRULY GRATEFUL  

   The base is Pool Party card stock 11” x 4 ¼” and a square cut 3 ½” x 2 ½”.  Soft Suede card stock was cut 3 ¼” x 2 ¼” for the wood grain rectangle, and a square of 3” x 1 ¼” for the saying.

   Very Vanilla card stock was used for the circle cut 2 ¾” x 2 ¾”, inside & background card 5 ¼” x 4″, and a square of 2 ¼” x 1″ for the saying.

   Emboss one Very Vanilla card stock using the Stripes Embossing folder and Big Shot Die-Cut Machine.  Stamp the wood image using Soft Suede ink on scrap paper, then onto the embossed card to give it a light image. Do not press hard since you only the image stamped on the raised stripe.  Repeat this process several times until the entire card is covered.  This will be used as your background. Stamp the soft suede cardstock also with the wood image.

   Stamp the wood grain image on Very Vanilla using the Summer Starfruit ink pad. I stamped the image on scrap paper first, and then onto the Very Vanilla to give it a light image. Stamp the same image on the 2 ¼” x 1” saying square to give the saying a background.

   Using a sponge dauber, edge the circle in soft suede and the saying. Pool party was used lightly on the wheat tops.

   Stamp saying on square and adhere to the soft suede square.  Wrap twine around the Very Vanilla background and adhere to the base card. Adhere the Soft Suede to the Pool Party for a layered look. Using dimensions pop up the circle and the saying.  I hope you have enjoyed ‘1 Stamp Set = 3 Card Deisgn’ series!
