Nuts About Squirrels Card

This Nuts About Squirrels Stamp Set is so darn cute!!! It’s from the New Mini Catalog and it just makes me smile!

In the video below I’ll show you how to use the two-step stamps to create these cute squirrels. I’ll also show you the pretty papers in the Tidings Of Christmas Designer Series Pack.

These squirrels are so fun and I love the sentiments in this stamp set.

Tips & Instructions

• Early Espresso Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4

• Tidings Of Christmas Designer Series Paper - 5 1/4 x 4, wrap Baker’s Twine around layer 3 times and adhere in the back, then adhere layer to card base.

• Basic White Cardstock - cut with the largest rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.

• Stamp the squirrel and acorn with Early Espresso and Sahara Sand Inks. Stamp branch and sentiment with Early Espresso Ink. Stamp the leaf veins with Early Espresso Ink and the leaves with Bumblebee and Calypso Coral Ink.

• Adhere layer to card using Dimensionals.

• Add some Bumblebee Decorative Matte Dots.

On the inside stamp the other squirrel with Early Espresso Ink and the inside with Sahara Sand Ink, stamping off first. Stamp the sentiment and leaf veins with Early Espresso Ink and the leaves with Calypso Coral and Bumblebee Inks. I stamped one of the leaves a second time without re-inking to get a lighter shade.
