Project Recipe
Start with a Cinnamon Cider cs card base. Cut a Pattern Party Host DSP panel and glue it to the card base. Die cut a Vellum cs stitched scalloped rectangle and a Basic White cs stitched scalloped rectangle with the Scalloped Contours dies.
Stamp the sentiment from the Nuts About Squirrels stamp set in Memento Black ink on the top right of the Basic White cs stitched scalloped rectangle. Glue the stamped Basic White cs stitched scalloped rectangle to the Vellum cs stitched scalloped rectangle. Then add the rectangles to the center of the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals. Be sure that you place the dimensionals on the Vellum cs rectangle so that they are hidden by the Basic White cs rectangle.
Stamp the squirrel outline image from the Nuts About Squirrels stamp set in Memento Black ink on Basic White cs. Stamp the coordinating inner squirrel image in 2nd generation (stamped off) Cinnamon Cider ink. Fussy cut out the image and glue it along the bottom of the Basic White cs rectangle overlapping the Vellum cs rectangle. Tie a small double bow with Linen Thread and attach it to the card front under the sentiment with a glue dot.
Don't forget to add a Basic White cs inside panel to write your message. I stamped the sentiment and added a strip of DSP to the inside and back of the card to pull the theme through.
