Directions:
1. Using the paper cutter, cut the 12” x 12” whisper white paper to create two cards 10” x 5”. Score in the middle using the Simply Scored to create the fold.
2. Cut a 4 ¼” x 4 ¼” piece of whisper white. Cut a 5” x 5” piece and a 4 ¼” x 1” piece of Old Olive Cardstock.
3. Ink the Medallion Stamp with Versamark ink and stamp on the 4 ¼” x 4 ¼” piece of white. Add the gold embossing powder to the stamped image.
4. Heat the paper with the heat tool being careful to keep moving the paper around so it doesn’t burn (hint – sticky notes work really well as a “handle”) until the embossing powder turns metallic.
5. Ink the edges of the 5” x 5” piece of Old Olive cardstock using Chocolate Chip.
6. Mount the embossed piece on the 5” x 5” piece of Old Olive cardstock.
7. Take the 4 ¼” x 1” piece of Old Olive cardstock and stamp the sentiment using the Many Merry Messages set in Basic Black. Take the sponge and ink the edges in Chocolate Chip. Mount on the card using dimensional adhesive.

A few notes:
To clean the stamp off, spray the wet side (look for the rain drops) of the Stampin’ Scrub with Stampin’ Mist, then dry on the other side (look for the small umbrella)
To get your embossing powder back in the jar, use the powder pals underneath when you pour the embossing powder.
