- Cut a piece of 8 1/2 x 11 Apricot Appeal cardstock in half the long way so you have a piece of cardstock that measures 4 1/4 x 11. Score it at 5 1/2 and fold.
- Cut a 4 x 4 3/4 piece of Basic Black cardstock and set it aside.
- Cut a 3 7/8 x 5 piece of Nouveau Chic DSP and use the Scallop Edge punch along the bottom edge of it.
- Using your SNAIL, adhere the DSP to the piece of Basic Black cardstock you have set aside.
- At this point, you want to attach your Basic Gray Taffeta ribbon to the cardstock before you attach it to the base of the card. Tie the ribbon in a knot around the bottom of the DSP/Basic Black cardstock nearest the scalloped edge. Snip the ends to the desired length.
- Now you want to attach your Black Brads to the base of the card just underneath the scalloped edge of the DSP. Using your paper piercing pad, template and piercing tool, line up and poke three holes in a row where you will set the brads. Affix the brads to the base of the card and set it aside. Now, you can move on to the stamped portion of the card.
- Cut a 1 3/4 x 1 3/4 piece of Apricot Appeal cardstock and set it aside.
- Cut a 1 5/8 x 3 5/8 piece of Basic Black cardstock and set it aside.
- Cut a 1 1/2 x 3 1/2 piece of Whisper White cardstock and set it aside.
- Remove the "body form" stamp from the Chic Boutque stamp set and, using the Jet Black StazOn ink pad, stamp the image on the piece of Whisper White cardstock you just cut.
- Now, reink the stamp and, using a scrap piece of DSP paper, stamp the image again and cut out the middle of the form following the dotted lines. With your SNAIL, adhere the piece of DSP to the image you have stamped on your Whisper White cardstock.
- Take your Blender Pens and your Basic Black and Basic Gray ink pads and color in the stand of the stamped image. Lastly, using your Apricot Appeal and SageShadow Stampin' Write markers, color in the rest of the stamped image as you wish.
- Now, take your piece of Whisper White cardstock and, using your SNAIL, attach it to the piece of Basic Black cardstock you had set aside. Then, attach that to the piece of Apricot Appeal cardstock you had set aside. Lastly, using your Stampin' Dimensionals, attach the stamped image to the base of the card. Add any words or phrases you wish and that's it!
