24. Re-ink and stamp if necessary.
25. Remove the panel from the stamping platform and heat set.
26. Trim the width of the sentiment, cut the sentences of the sentiment apart, then trim both parts.

29. Adhere the image panel as shown.

Note:

• If you heat set the image panel with the mask in place, you will NOT be able to remove the mask. The heat will melt the adhesive on the back of the label.
