Remember the One Layer Wednesday cards this week? I really didn't like them and said that I would probably layer them up. Well that's exactly what I did!
The leaf card went from this........
To this.....
I cut off the card front, cut it down, matted it with Dusty Durango & Chocolate Chip and put it on a Naturals White card base.
I was liking it better but it seemed like it needed more on the top. So I masked it again and stamped the leaves a couple more times. Oops, the mask moved a bit. Not too bad though. It's still going to work.
I wondered about putting a little bit more dimension with a cut out leaf. So I stamped the leaf on a piece of scrap, sponged on some color, smacked it with the VersaMark pad and clear embossed it. I cut it out, rolled it a bit with my bone folder and adhered it over the original leaf.
OK, I like this a lot better!
Now to get it in the mail for my DB's birthday. Did I tell you he was going to be 60? Wow, I remember when we thought that 60 was really, really old!
Have a great weekend and I hope you get some ink on your fingers.

I love what you did with this, Bonnie!! I think the layers and extra leaves add a lot to your design--lots more dimension. And I bet that your DB will love it for this birthday!!!
ReplyDeleteHope your 60-year-young brother loves this; I like your re-make much better, too!
