Instructions
Run the Light Cocoa card stock half-sheet through the Victoria embossing envelope (so the design is at the top portion of the card base). Then run it through again, this time using the Distressed Stripes embossing envelope at the bottom of the card-base. Use Butterscotch Chalk in a random pattern to colorize the embossed areas. Follow with Brown Chalk.
Glue the ribbon horizontally where the two embossing designs meet.
Cut the following Oval shapes using the dies and die cut machine (getting progressively smaller): White, Brown, White.
Using the largest White oval and the Squirrel stamp, make a pattern all over the oval using Gold ink. Chalk the entire stamped surface with Butterscotch chalk. Then edge with Bark ink. Glue oval medallion to the card base.
Then emboss the Brown oval using the Victoria embossing envelope and glue to the card base you are building on.
On the smaller White oval, stamp a pattern using the "Oak Leaves" border stamp. Then stamp the Mini Squirrel in Pinecone ink on top of the background. Edge this medallion with the Gold Paint Pen. Glue medallion to the top of the card and embellish the card with Adhesive Pearls.
That's it!
