Well here my post is finally - and as I type this up I really hope that SSS will be able to restock this stamp set (and the dies!) b/c it is so adorable and I don't think anyone predicted it would sell out as insanely fast as it did!
I stamped the images from the set onto kraft card stock with SSS Intense black ink then used color pencils (I used Polychromos but you can use any brand you have - I linked to Prismacolor ones in the description) and Gamsol to blend the color out.
I added the highlights with Copic Opaque White (basically a SUPER white paint - it's my hands-down favourite white for adding highlights) which just pops on the kraft card stock!
I piled up all the acorns I'd coloured on the inside of the card and left the rest blank for space to write. I added the last acorn and heart to the very back of the card (you can see it in the pic of the colors used above) and that was it!
To see how this card came together check out my video below:

I get asked a lot about where to purchase the supplies I use in my videos and blog posts. I list all the supplies I use at the end of my posts (below) or in the description box directly below my video on YouTube. If the product images have sets of letters below the image it means there's more than one place it can be purchased. SSS = Simon Says Stamp, AZ = Amazon, MFT = My Favourite Things, SnS = Scrap N Stamp (Canada) etc. Compensated affiliate links used when possible at no extra cost to you. Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home with my kids! I appreciate your support more than words can say!
Items marked with an asterisk (*) have been sent by a store/manufacturer (with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love). Everything else I purchase myself!
