1. Emboss a piece of kraft cardstock with the Swiss Dots folder and layer it onto a slightly larger piece of white cardstock and then mat on the front of a kraft card base.


2. Adhere a 2 1/4" square of cloud paper to the center of the card and add a punched scalloped border from pink cardstock to the bottom of it.


3. Die cut the clothesline pieces using the Straight from the Nest cartridge at 2 1/2" and cut the grass at 2 3/4". Adhere the grass above the scalloped border and adhere the clothesline pole to the cloud paper at an angle.


4. Attach a piece of twine from the pole to the edge of the square and adhere a small bow over the pole. Adhere the die cut t-shirts just below the twine with foam adhesive.


5. Stamp a sentiment onto a punched white circle and layer it onto a slightly larger punched pink circle. Add the circles to the cloud paper on the right side.


6. Tie twine around the bottom of the cloud paper and adhere a button to the bow.


7. Adhere the embellished square of cloud paper to the center of the card front.
