I started by heat embossing the "grin" stamp with black embossing powder, onto standard white cardstock. Embossing makes it nice and shiny and more professional looking versus using an ink stamp. Then I colored it in with Copic Markers. I then cut it out with a Spellbinder die cut. I stenciled with Old Paper distress ink.
Next, I cut out the background and the 2 rectangles (including their matting) using my Cricut and the Fab Finds cartridge. I assembled those items. The 2 triangles were embossing using the Argyle embossing folder (Cuttlebug). After that I used the Colorbox ink took to add white from an ink pad. To finish, I added the clear stamped { & }. I used pop dots on the spellbinder die cut.
