Instructions (Print version)

1. Create a 5 x 6 card from teal cardstock.
2. Place the “It’s a Party!” stamp from the Kids Birthday Stamp set on the Stamp Press.  Ink the “It’s a” and stamp it on the yellow side of the Beach Footloose paper.  Attach the “Birthday” stamp to the Stamp Press, ink it and stamp it approximately ¾” under the “It’s a” stamped image.  Ink the “Party” portion of the “It’s a Party” stamp and stamp it under the “Birthday” image.
3. Cut the stamped image out and trim the bottom with the Mini-Pinking edgers.  Draw two black lines around the stamped portion.
4. Add the “Beach” chipboard from the Beach Chipboard ABC Accent stickers   between the “It’s a” and “Birthday” and the umbrella from the Beach 3D Gel Stickers in the lower right corner.
5. Cut a 2 ¾ x 3 ¼ piece of Beach Chitchat and trim the bottom with the Mini-Pinking Edgers.  Attach the stamped piece to the script paper with foam squares.
6. Cut a 3 ¼ x 3 ½ piece of the grey side of the Beach Chitchat paper and attach it near the top of the card.
7. Stamp the border stamp with the circles in it on the yellow side of the Beach Footloose paper and cut out the image.  Attach it on the lower portion of the card and add the teal attached circle border from the Beach Self Adhesive 3D Gel Stitches right above the stamped border.
