Directions:
1) Stamp the Prospector onto matte cardstock using Tim
Holtz Distressed Ink-Walnut Stain and spritz immediately with water,
allowing the ink to run/spread.
2) After the ink has sufficiently spread, iron the image
with a craft iron set to high. Spritz with additional water as
needed.
3) Fold the kraft colored paper in half and cut to A6 size
card.
4) Tear around the Prospector image and edge in the Walnut
Stain ink.
5) Cut a piece of coco cardstock to matt the image on and
attach using two copper eyelets.
6) Layer onto the kraft card.
7) Cut a slit into the fold of the card and wind a length
of the natural twine through several times, knot and then fray the
ends as seen in the sample.
Note: This card makes a great masculine birthday card!
