I stamped the images first, with basic balck and versamark, heat embossed them, then colored the images in with markers. Then I went over the images with a versamark pen and then heat embossed the images with clear EP. Then I used a scrap piece of computer paper torn at the top, covered the top half of the image and the grass with mellow moss, old olive and always artichoke. I also used the leaf stamp from a different stamp set (???) to add a little something extra, and stamped it in always artichoke along the bottom of the card. Then I sponged Apricot appeal on the top half of the card stock and continued to use darker colors to provide the warmth. The last color that I sponged on was Really Rust along the top edge and corners. And of course before I put it all together I had to use a little machine stitching!
