Stamp your images on the large Whisper White piece, keeping them to the right hand side of the cardstock.
Stamp the deer on the smaller piece of cardstock in black ink.
Stamp the trees at the outer edges of the cardstock. Try not to get too much ink over the deer.
Stamp grass repeatedly - no need to ink the stamp each time -- until you have a grassy covering at the bottom of the layer.
Colour the deer using Blender Pens and the Cajun Craze ink pad. Don't add too much ink as it will make it hard to blend and result in smears.
Stamp the butterflies on the base card, the small card and another set on a scrap of Whisper White card.
Take your 11.5cm x 6.5cm piece of Mossy Meadow and score at 5cm and 10cm. This is your card flap.
Take your piece of Burlap ribbon and fray it. Adhere this between the deer image and the corrugated cardstock.
Take the Mossy Meadow flap and apply glue to the top side of the smallest section. Sandwich this between the large Whisper White layer and the Mossy Meadow card base.
Add the stamped deer layer to the front flap, lining it up neatly on the left, right and bottom. It should fit perfectly.
Finally, cut out your spare butterfly and attach to the bottom panel using a Glue Dot, to keep it secure. Manipulate it slightly so that it acts as a "stopper" for the front panel.
