I really felt like getting my teeth into something this morning so I decided to have a go at this gorgeous piece of art.
I put the Spellbinders frame and oval through my Big Shot at the same time to get the oval window. Then I thought to do something that I can't believe I never thought of before. Instead of gluing the leaf die to the frame die, I ran the frame die cut through my Big Shot with the leaf die, so I just got the tips of the leaves. Then I embedded the leaves. Sometimes you want a layered look, sometimes not....so this worked really well and was way easer to adhere as well....I just put little pieces of tape on the back.
Your gallery is lovely Sue.....it was a pleasure going through it this morning. Congratulations and enjoy your week!
