- 4" x 5-1/4" from Basic White Cardstock
- 3-1/4" x 4-1/2" from Polished Pink Cardstock

- 1" x 1-1/4" from Basic White Cardstock
- 3/4" square from Polished Pink Cardstock
- 5/8" square from Adhesive Sheets
Insert the 4" x 5-1/4" white rectangle into the crosshatched embossing folder from the Basic 3D Embossing Folders set. Use the line printed on the front flap of the folder to make sure it is lined up straight. Place the folder with the cardstock inside on the platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine and run through the machine.
Adhere the dry embossed white rectangle to the front of the Tahitian Tide card.
Pick out the stitched rectangle die from the Stitched Rectangles Dies that cuts out a rectangle that is 3" x 4-3/8". Put it on top of the Polished Pink rectangle on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine.
Mount the "happy birthday" sentiment from the Peaceful Moments Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Tahitian Tide Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the bottom of the vertical 3" x 4-1/4" white rectangle so it is about 1/2" from the bottom edge.
Adhere the piece of Tahitian Tide designer paper to the top of the stamped white rectangle so it is about 3/8" above the top of the sentiment.
Pick out the stitched rectangle die from the Stitched Rectangles Dies that cuts out a rectangle that is 2-5/8" x 4". Put it on top of the sentiment stamped white/designer paper rectangle on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so the sentiment is centered in the bottom section Run through the machine.
Cut an 11" piece of the Tahitian Tide twine from the 2022-2024 In Color Baker's Twine Pack.
Fold the twine into thirds.
Lay the folded twine across the white/designer paper rectangle so it covers the seam between the two pieces. Fold the ends of the folded twine over and secure the ends of the folded twine in place with strips of Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Remove the protective backings from the Tear & Tape strips and add Stampin' Seal to the back of the white rectangle. Adhere it to the center of the Polished Pink rectangle cut out.
Adhere the matted rectangle cut outs to the center of the front of the card.
As you are ready to stamp using the Warm Welcome Set, place the cardstock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.
Mount the stack of presents image from the Warm Welcome Set on Block C. Ink it up with the Polished Pink Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the vertical 1-1/2" x 2-1/4" white rectangle.
Pick out the matching stack of presents die from the Warm Welcome Dies. Put it on top of the stamped stack of presents on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the image. Run through the machine.
Use the Polished Pink Stampin' Write Marker to color in every other diagonal stripe on the center present in the stack.
Use the Tahitian Tide Stampin' Write Marker to color in the dots on the bottom present in the stack.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the colored stack of presents cut out to the front of the card so the bottom of the present stack is tucked under the twine on the right side as shown.
Pick out the tiny sign die from the Warm Welcome Dies. Put it on top of the tiny piece of white cardstock on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine.
Mount the "Yay!" sentiment from the Warm Welcome Set on Block A. Ink it up with the Polished Pink Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the small sign cut out.
Adhere the stamped small sign cut out to the front of the card as shown in the upper left corner of the designer paper.
Peel the protective backing off of the tiny Adhesive Sheets piece. Adhere the Adhesive Sheets piece to one side of the tiny Polished Pink piece. Be sure to leave the other protective backing in place for now.
Pick out the bow hanger die from the Warm Welcome Dies. Put it on top of the tiny Polished Pink piece on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so the pink side is face up. Run through the machine. Use the paper-piercing tool and on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Trim off excess bow strings from the tiny bow cut out using Paper Snips Scissors.
Carefully remove the protective backing from the back of the tiny bow cut out. Adhere it to the top of the tiny sign cut out so it is centered side to side.
Cut a 9" piece of the Tahitian Tide twine from the 2022-2024 In Color Baker's Twine Pack.
Slide one end of the twine under the twine on the left side of the card front. Tie in place with a small bow. Trim the ends.
