Sorry - the brads I used are already retired from Sale A Bration, they were what I had with me at the time.

How To:

1. If your VersaMark pad is not very moist re-ink and set to the side. Do the trees on the bottom last in stamping order.

2. First cut your Pear Pizzazz cardstock to 8 1/2” x 6”. Fold long-wise using a Bone Folder and fold evenly in half.

3. Ink the wheel in VersaMark, roll halfway across bottom edge, reink and try to realign trees and continue the rest of the edge.

4. Ink the tree trunks in browns and stamp three off to each side, stamp three on Whisper White cardstock.

5. Using the Stamp a Majig; (I stamped one tree top in each corner of the imaging sheet), line up your tree tops, color with green marker and stamp.

6. Using black marker ink the sentiment, brown would also work well.

7. Paper pierce the sides of the White cardstock and insert the green brads.

8. Adhere the white using Stampin Dimensionals.
