The pair of trees were stamped in Early Espresso ink, overlapping the edge of the ink blended area. The deer was also stamped in Early Espresso ink.

The stamped panel was then glued to the Early Espresso panel. At this point I decided to stamp the sentiment in Early Espresso directly onto the panel………. Big mistake as it wasn’t straight…… So I stamped it again onto scrap Basic White card and die cut it using one of the dies from the Greetings of the Season Dies. This cut down and glued over the original stamped sentiment.
