Step 1: Cut cardstock as per above measurements. The piece is 3.25” wide x 12” long. Score at 2” and 7.25” (2” and then 5.25” from the 2” score mark).

Step 4: Your scored and trimmed cardstock now looks like the photo above
Step 3: On the 2” end, angle the edges to resemble a tag. (I measured 1” down from the fold line and ¾” out on either side from the center and did cut on the angle.

Step 5: From your designer paper, cut 2 pieces 5” x 3”, 1 piece of the tab shape which is also 5” x 3” but cut a circle out, ¼” larger than the cardstock piece (you are cutting the circle larger so the circle is ¼” smaller than the cardstock), 2 pieces of the tag shape. Making sure each edge is ¼” smaller than the cardstock piece. The size of my digi sentiment is 2 ¼ ” x 2 ½ ” and the surrounding cardstock is 2 ½ “ x 2 ¾”.
