The tree has been stamped and coloured, then die cut. It is mounted over the tree paper and the die cut deer strip placed in front. The branch tree is tucked behind, and stamped, coloured and die cut rocks placed in front.



For this card, the tree, deer and rock scene has been built on to a small panel then mounted over a ribbon strip on  the card front.


The tree was stamped, coloured and die cut using also the filigree die. The leaf die was used with the coral card and fixed on top. The tree was mounted on the card and the stamped, coloured and die cut deer and rocks added along with some fallen leaves.
Gems and trinkets were added.

Hope you enjoy

49 and Market Layout - Don't Let Go and Sweet

Hello

How beautiful are these background papers from Fabscraps and don't they co-ordinate beautifully with the 49 and Market ARToptions Rouge Ephemera Bits?! The arched window is leftover from another 49 and Market Kit which I used in a previous album.


When adding the frames to the layouts, I only adhere 2 or sometimes 3 of the sides down to be able to add photos with ease.


Some of the other embellishments used in this album include: rhinestones, buttons, ribbon and tiny bulldog clips - did you spot the pink one in the top layout of this post?

See you soon!
