Punch out the Sugar Plum tan lace border die cut and remove the nibs. Cut 6¼"x1¼" Sugar Plum purple and 6¼"x1" red checked papers. Punch the Victorian border in the purple strip and the arc border in the checked strip. Glue the die cut border and two paper borders across the top of the tan paper as shown. Cut 6¼"x 1/8" purple cardstock and glue to the checked strip near the top.
Punch out the Sugar Plum red/green label, “wish,” and 2¼" tan label die cuts and remove the nibs. Glue the large label to the green paper, overlapping the lower edge. Foam tape “wish” across the label as shown. Cut two 5½" ribbons and form each into a 1¼" and a 1½" loop. Secure the loops with tape then tape a set of loops extending from each end of the small label. Foam tape the label as shown.
