Using 1" square stamp from the "Words to Live By" stamp set, stamp 6 squares in different colors in a grid pattern as shown in photo above.

Choose 3 word stamps from the "Words to Live By" stamp set, (I chose Kindness, Friendship, and Happiness), and using coordinating inks, stamp sentiments in 3 of the 6 blocks as shown in photo. Stamp a heart, flower and star from the "Words to Live By" stamp set in the remaining blocks, using colors that coordinate with the blocks.

Using Chocolate ink, stamp Thank You from the "Say it in Style" stamp set, centering sentiment under the blocks as shown in the photo.

Outline the blocks using chocolate ink and the zig-zag stitches stamp from the "Simple Stitches" stamp set. Stamp 2 zig-zag stitches along the edges of the front flap as well, and adhere a gingham bow in the center as shown above.

Have a blessed day!
