Take your Vanilla c/s (2 x 2 3/4) cut off the edges. Completely ink your H&K stamp w/ Moss ink. Then take your red marker & color in your & shape and stamp it on your c/s. Litely spray that c/s w/ adhesive spray & pour on some thick embossing powder & shake off. Heat set it, to look as if it rained on it (it will have dots of enamel) (this is my famous "Wet Look"). Wait about 1 minute until it cools off (I burned my finger), then run it through your crimper. Mount it on your red c/s.
Ink you date stamp in black & stamp it on your vanilla punched out tag shapes. Take a brand new pencil, ink up the eraser in Moss & mark your date. (Sorry I seen this somewhere, cant remember). Mount your tags to red c/s. Sponge the edges of your regular Vanilla c/s in Moss. Punch your eyelet holes in your 3 tags, feed the ribbon through it taping it to the back of the tag & the regular c/s. I used mini glue dots for that process.
