Stamp ornamental lamps as seen on sample with the Black Tuxedo ink. Using a basic black or journaling marker extend the black lines rom the lamp to the top of the card.
Use the Stampin' Blends to color in the lamps. You can use the color lifter to give the lamp some dimension.
Stamp branch/leaves from the Jar of Love stamp set in Old Olive on the lower left.
Stamp sentiment above branch and to the left of the lamps.
Stamp the Panda with the balloon on a scrap piece of whisper white. Fussy cut out the panda. You will be attaching this later with stampin' dimensionals.
Make loops from linen thread. Run a small strip of snail on the card front so you can adhere the loops - the panda you cut from the previous step will hide the snail that is holding down the linen thread.
