Step 1 of 8

Stamp Ottie in Midnight, onto a piece of white card. Paint him using your Distress inks before cutting out. 

Step 2 of 8

Stamp your sentiment in the same ink, in the banner our Ottie is holding. 

Step 3 of 8

Adhere one of the stickers provided, in place across the banner. Pop our Ottie to one side. 

Step 4 of 8

Choose your paper from the Marbled Elegance paper pad. 

Step 5 of 8

Tear two vellum panels and place across the bottom half of the paper. Tuck the edges over and secure on the reverse with a tape runner or double-sided tape. 

Step 6 of 8

Using Ottie as a positional guide, stamp the reveal stamp and directional arrow in the appropriate place. Use foam pads to secure Ottie on the vellum panels, to the right of the paper. 

Step 7 of 8

Apply Gold gilding wax around the edges of the paper, using a soft cloth to buff, thus bringing out the shine. 

Step 8 of 8

Mat onto black card cut to 6 1/4" square and then onto your white card blank.
