Here's what you do:
Print a sentiment onto a sheet of white card stock, near the top of the page. Cut your card stock into a 3" x 9" strip. Position the sentiment on the right of the Scor Pal. Score at 2", 6", 6 3/8" inches.
On the back of the card stock, use the citrus stamp in various colors. Stamp on the opposite end than the printed sentiment.
Use Glue Dots to adhere a black scallop on the stamped section of your paper strip. Then, position the circle die in the center and run through the Big Shot again to cut out the opening.
Fold your strip on the score lines so that the sentiment is now on the front. Use Glue Lines along the side to create a pocket. Insert a couple of lemonade packets into the pocket.
