1. Fold 8 ½ x 5 ½ inch Chocolate Chip card stock at 4 ¼ inches.

2. Take 3 inches of 1 ¼ inch Chocolate Chip striped grosgrain ribbon and cut in half down the middle. Set aside.

3. Take the 2 ½ x 4 inch Very Vanilla card stock and cut corners to make it look like a tag – on the top go in ¾ inch and angle down the side to 1”. Do this on the 2 ¾ x 4 ¼ inch old olive as well.

4. On the Old Olive scrap paper, punch a modern label and photo corners and set aside.

5. On a scrap of Kraft card stock, stamp the inspire (from define your life) using Chocolate Chip classic ink. Trim all around close to the image.

6. Color the flower side of the large stamp in Inspired by Nature with the Chocolate Chip, So Saffron and Old Olive markers. Stamp the image on the Very Vanilla tag. Recolor the stamp and stamp on the bottom left corner of the 5 ¼ x 4 inch Very Vanilla cardstock.

7. Ink the Sanded stamp with Old Olive classic ink and stamp on top of flower image on the Very Vanilla tag.

8. With the 3 flower stamp in the One of a Kind stamp set, randomly stamp the 4 x 2 inch piece of Kraft using Chocolate Chip classic ink.

9. Use the sponge and Chocolate chip classic ink to distress all the pieces on all edges.

10. Adhere the Old Olive designer series paper to the front of the card. Add the piece of stamped Kraft card stock about 2/3 of the way down the front.

11. Layer the Very Vanilla Tag onto the Old Olive tag; cut the modern label in half and attach to the top of the tag. Using the cropodile, punch a hole for the brad. Insert the brad through the tag and the ribbon (you may need to punch through the ribbon as well). Attach to the card at an angle (see picture).

12. Place dimensional on the back of the inspire definition and attach to the bottom right of the card.

13. Open the card and attach the 5 ¼ x 4 inch piece of Very Vanilla card stock. Attach the photo corners as shown in the picture.
