Cut ribbon (pink w/ white polka dots) to same length, 1” x 5 ½” and attach below stripe strip. (Note: I use the Xyron 150 machine to run small objects through for great “stick” and this little machine works great for ribbon!)
Use American Crafts stamp & ink to apply greeting to card. Apply chipboard heart to left of stamped greeting.
Tear the bottom of the small white tag. Stamp/write “it’s been a while” on bottom of tag as shown. Apply Making Memories flower blossom to top of tag. Add thread to button and apply with a glue dot to center of flower.
