I had a clear picture in my mind of what I wanted this to look like, but wasn't able to pull it off. I originally wanted the cardinal image to be embossed but I have trouble getting a good embossed image with this stamp for some reason. So I ended up stamping and colouring it on Very Vanilla then cut it out and stuck it on top of the embossed image.

I tried embossing on the woodsheets and couldn't get what I wanted either. It seemed that the ink bled into the woodgrain. You did better than I did. I just gave up.
