Instructions
Run the Rust and Black pre-measured pieces through the embossing envelope. Smudge the high portions of the embossed papers with the Bronze ink. Glue the Black rectangle onto the Rust card-base. Set aside for now.
Using the following inks on white cardstock, stamp the Fancy Fin stamp as in a fish school pattern: Paprika, Split Pea, Bark, and Pinecone. Trim the strip with the Gold Paint Pen. Cut both ends off and then trim the tips with scissors to form a ribbon shape. Glue all three of the resulting pieces onto Black cardstock scraps and trim away the excess, leaving a black pinstripe. Glue to the card-base.
On the white scrap, stamp the Fancy Fin fish in Black ink. Punch out with the smallest die cut in the set. Smudge gently with Brown chalk. Use the Gold Paint Pen around the scalloped edges and glue this medallion to a Black scrap of paper. Trim away the excess, leaving a thin pinstripe of black. Glue the medallion to the aquarium ribbon you made earlier and you’re finished.
