- Die-cut Decorative Plaque panel from Black CS. Rub piece with Embossing buddy, stamp image with Versamark Ink and add White Embossing Powder. Heat set. Apply white ink on image and edges (as much or little as you want, I used my thumb )
- Add jute and blue twine.
- Add panels to card with large foam tape.
