Lil Christmas Tree...

"Lil Peanuts' Christmas Tree" can be found HERE
Aud Sentiments' current challenge is to Start Your Christmas Projects!  There is a week left on this challenge - and if you need some ideas... check out the DT samples!  There are 2 sponsors this go around - Stitchy Bear & Lacy Sunshine, and thus TWO prizes!  You can submit up to FIVE projects - so get crackin' and get a head start on the Holidays!
PROCESS INVENTORY
IMAGES: 








  • "Lil Peanuts' Christmas Tree" was provided to me by  Lacy Sunshine Stamps 
  • For this image I used Paper Tole Technique to give her dimension.  Printed 3 copies, colored them with Copics, fussy cut and 'paper sculpted' the images.  The layers were both glued in some places & elevated in others with foam tape to achieve the desired dimension.
  • The focal image was cut simultaneously with two sizes of die cuts - each die cut was elevated with foam tape and then the 3 layers of the image itself were layered on top of that so that there are five layers of elevation to this image.
  • Sentiment is from Penny Black
PAPER:  
  • Neenah "Classic Crest Solar White" 80# Cover Wt. used for the image.
  • Base CS is Relflections  purchased at Michaels
  • Inside is same DP as used on the front and is a stash item.
EMBELLISHMENTS: 
  • Die Cuts used for the two cuts on the focal image panel and for the sentiment panel are from a set by Spellbinders.
  • Ribbon is stash
  • Three clear acylic stars are stickers from ??
INKS:
  • Images were printed on an Epson WF-3520 printer   
  • Hand colored with Copics:

      You are the master at copics! Her face is so sweet with those big green eyes! Wonderful depth and interest using the spellbinders as well as the paper toll for interest. Such a cute card and brilliantly done!
