Lots of Layers!


I've been waiting all morning to post my DT card for the challenge at Stampavie and More, this time around is for lots of layers - on my card there are 5 layers between the base and the image making seven in all! It seems there is a delay but I'm not sure what's up and my internet gets worse as the day goes on, so here's my card. I have stamped up one of my old vintage wooden Penny Black stamps called Beau Tied and coloured with my Copic pens then sat and carefully fussy cut it out - phew it took a while!


Here's a close up of my colouring and cutting .. .. but don't look to closely!


And here is my card.  I've used the pretty Spring Chic papers again along with pastel blue card for the base mat and my corners.  The central layers are all from the Marianne die LR0180, two layers with the scallop edge and one embossed cut out layer.  With so much going on in the image and all those layers, plus the embossed corners (LR0143) I didn't think I needed to add anything else!

There are lots of 'loved up' challenges out there just now, so here's a few I've picked out to link up my card:

  2. Quite delightful & it was definitely worth cutting the image out for it's allowed such added depth to show in addition to your layering. I particularly like thew ay you image overlaps the layering of the die-cut layers & extends over the latter's outer edges.
