Step 2: Die-cut the largest tag die in the Love to Layer: Ticket Die Set from Bitty Big: Pink Posey cardstock and the largest Reflections: John 1:4 Die from Stamper’s Select White cardstock. Trim the white die-cut and adhere along the edges of the ticket with liquid glue, to “stretch” the die-cut, then adhere to the front of the card, also using liquid glue.

Step 3: Die-cut the pineapple pieces from the Build-A-Pineapple Die Set from Lemon Tart and Green Parakeet cardstock. Add shading to the pineapple with Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise, Simply Chartreuse and Vintage Photo Distress Ink. Use New Leaf ink to add shading to the pineapple topper. Adhere die-cuts together, then add to the front of the card with liquid glue.

Step 4: Die-cut the luggage tag from Stamper’s Select White, Cocoa Bean and brushed gold cardstock using the Build-A-Luggage Tag Die Set. Add stripes to the tag with the Build-A-Luggage Tag Stencil Set and Coastal Blue ink. Adhere together and pop up with foam tape. Stamp the sentiments from the This Is Big Sentiments: Hello and Destination Sentiments Stamp Sets onto Stamper’s Select White cardstock with Pale Peony and Hibiscus Burst inks. Use the This Is Big Sentiments: Hello and Destination Sentiments Coordinating Dies to cut them out. Trim “from” from the small script sentiment and adhere the sentiments to the tag with liquid glue.

Step: 5: Die-cut the flowers and leaves in the Build-A-Pineapple Die Set from Stamper’s Select White, Green Parakeet and brushed gold cardstock. Add shading to the leaves with New Leaf ink and the flowers with Harvest Gold and Summer Sunrise inks. Adhere them together, then pop up with foam tape.
