For this week's challenge to the CCEE Stampers, Maryann has asked us to use the Telescoping Images tutorial here on SCS. I admit I have only ever tried this once before, when it was a TLC. But it was a good chance to ink up a new stamp I got recently - the mega oval dies worked perfectly.
I followed the tutorial pretty much exactly, stamping and colouring two images (mixture of pencils and Twinkling H2Os) as much like each other as possible, but using the base as an extra layer. The base layer was stencilled a bit with Reverse Chicken Wire, and embossed with a Crafts Too feather ef and sponged with more blue, with Stickles round the edge.

What an amazing card, Sabrina. This might be one of my favorite ceations of yours...hard to pick when each card you make is exquisite. Gorgeous colors, perfect coloring, wonderful textures and patterns...ooooh, I just love it. I don't know what sparkling H2Os are, but I heed to find out. A funny side note-I got so carried away by your card that I forgot I was hard boiling eggs. By the time I remembered the water was boiling out of the pot all over the stove and 3 of the eggs had exploded. Pinned and faved.
