This is for today's DDIC challenge and I'm also combining this w/ the Monday Technique Lover's Challenge at SCS, to do a masked frame. The heron (SZ) circle was stamped on white c/s and cut w/ a Spellbinders Nestie circle, using my Out of the Box Nestie Technique. I used markers to add just a touch of color. The larger outer circle was also cut w/ a Nestie circle and I used a smaller one to mask the center and stamp the images (RST) for a circle frame.
The sentiment (IS) was done the same way and another frame created around it.
On the chocolate layer, I stamped 3 different gingko images (SZ, Inkadinkado, RST) using the seaglass & frost white pigment inks. I cut around the top and inserted the clay colored textured c/s (The End Cut- the color is very close to Mellow Moss). A soft sky layer, another clay layer, then the white card follow. Two different size hole punches were used to make the faux brads.
Thanks so much for stopping by! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them
