Instructions:

Fold

Polka Dot Embossing folder.
Attach
a small piece of Tear & Tape to the ends of the smaller Bermuda
Bay strip.
Attach
the Bermuda Bay Strip to the Coastal Cabana layer about 1” from
the end (this leaves a space for you to slide the waterfall piece
underneath).
On
one white square, stamp the saying with Bermuda Bay ink. Stamp the
balloons with Lovely Lipstick ink.
On
the second white square, Stamp the large elephant with Coastal
Cabana ink. Stamp the small bird with Lovely Lipstick ink above the
elephant.
On
the third white square stamp the small elephant, with Coastal Cabana
ink. Stamp the hearts with Lovely Lipstick ink.
Mount
all 3 white squares onto the Lipstick mats.
Punch
a hole in the end of the scored Bermuda Bay cardstock.
Fold
the scored Bermuda Bay cardstock in on the scored lines.
Attach
the
scored Bermuda Bay to
the horizontal strip you just attached to the card front. To do
this, slide the longest section of the Bermuda Bay strip between the
horizontal strip and the card, making sure to center it on your
card. Line up the very edge of the scored end of Bermuda strip with
bottom of the horizontal strip and attach with Tear & Tape.
Start
sticking on your stamped images – starting with the bottom image.
Put a small strip of Tear & Tape, next to but not over the
scored lines and attach your images to the tape.
Pull
the strip to reveal the waterfall.
