Make card from cardstock. Cover the top part of the front with North Pole paper.
Add a layer of pink gingham paper and a layer of scalloped Report Card paper to the bottom edge.
Adhere a short length of Borderlines stickers just over the Report Card layer.
Open the card and place it in your die cut machine (I used a Cuttlebug). Position the die on top of the card (cutting side down) and hold it in place with a bit of removable adhesive. Run through the die cut machine. (The cut may take a few passes since it is cutting through several layers.)

Stamp the postal stamp image on the front of the card and embellish with
twine.
