  • Card Stock:
    • Island Indigo
    • Whisper White
    • Winter Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper (Item#132341)
  • Ink:
    • Silver Metallic Encore Pad (Item#132142)

    • Squares Collection Framelit (Item#130921)
    • Stampin' Dimensionals (Item#104430)
    • Snail Adhesive (Item#104332)

Instructions:

  1. Use the Squares Collection Framelit and going from the outside framelit inwards count three and remove that framelit.
  2. Place that framelit on top of Island Indigo card stock and cut out the square using the magnetic platform. 
    1. If you are not familiar with with Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine you would do the following:
      1. Place down the magnetic platform
      2. Next place a cutting plate on top of magnetic platform
      3. Next place the Island Indigo Card stock on top of cutting plate
      4. Next place the framelit on top of the Island Indigo card stock
      5. Next place cutting plate on top of that
      6. Now run this all together through the Big Shot Die Cutting Machine.
  3. Now take the Dove from the Calm Christmas stamp set and place it on the table image side up.
  4. Next take the Encore Silver ink and ink the stamp.  Be sure the middle of the stamp has a lot of ink on it, don't over saturate but just make sure it's covered completely. 
    1. It took me two attempts with the ink to get the image I desired.
  5. Stamp the image onto the Island Indigo Paper and set aside.
  6. Next cut out your Whisper White Card stock to 3 3/4 x 4
  7. Now layer the stamped image onto the whisper white card stock.
  8. Place Stampin Dimensionals under the whisper white card stock.
  9. Next cut your Winter Frost Designer Series Paper 4 x 4 and place on a cutting plate on top of the magnetic platform.
  10. Now place the scalloped edge of the Squares Collection Framelit over the Designer Paper….it will be bigger than the paper as you just want the scallops to be at the bottom.  Place the cutting plate on top and send it through the Big Shot. 
  11. Remove Designer Paper from Magnetic Plate and adhere with snail adhesive to Island Indigo Card Stock.
  12. Now after removing the backing to the Stampin' Dimensionals place the Whisper White Card stock to the Winter Frost Designer Paper.
  13. Now take the Peace on Earth Stamp and stamp it in VersaMark ink,
  14. Cover with silver embossing powder and heat with the heat tool.
