Okay, I’ve just got to say how adorable this squirrel from the Nuts About Squirrels stamp set is! Don’t you think?! It’s a Two-Step stamp set that features 13 photopolymer stamps including 2 squirrels, and their accessories as well as some great sentiments. I’ve paired the stamp set with the Timber Embossing Folder and the Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper for a great fall birthday card.

- Ink up the lower portion of the acorn in Crumb Cake and stamp off before stamping on the acorn, then do the same with the top of the acorn using Early Espresso ink
- Stamp the sentiment in early Espresso ink on the small Basic White piece and die-cut both the sentiment piece and the squirrel piece using the Seasonal Labels Dies

- Attach the Beauty of the Season Designer Series Paper to the Cajun Craze piece, then attach these to the Bumblebee piece with Stampin’ Seal
