Using the tall tree, I stamped in Shaded Spruce onto the bottom of the stamped strip in 1^st and 2^nd generation ink. This step was repeated to fill up the bottom of the panel.

Using the Scalloped Contour Dies, I cut the scalloped border using the Shaded Spruce card and added it behind the stamped layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment from the For Unto Us stamp set (so happy this set has returned) was stamped in Versamark ink onto the small piece of Basic Gray card, covered in White Embossing Powder and heat set using a Heat Tool.
