Hello Stampers!

Happy Halloween!! Is it me, or does it seem as if we skipped over Fall and landed squarely in Winter? We had a nasty snow storm blow through here last Wednesday (12+" for most, more for others!) and we're expected to have two more similar storms this week! The leaves had not even fallen off our trees yet.

Ok, so this week we are doing telescoping images. Not to be confused with Joan's telescoping card challenge of a few weeks back! The idea is to stack your image so that it appears to be coming out of the card. This can be achieved by using nestabilities or by simply cutting your layers smaller and smaller.

For my card (see below), I stamped my image only twice but used 4 different sized nesties. I cut the first (largest), then cut the third layer from the center of the first. I then cut the second layer and then cut my smallest layer from the center of that.

Here is my sample (gallery):
