Measurements: red – 2 ½” x 3 ¾”, 1 ½ x 3 ¼” both with 1/16” borders, image – 2” x 3 ¾” plus 1/16 and 1/8” borders
Copic markers were used for the image: R22,24,29, Y38, B0000,000,00
The out of the box feature is very easy by cutting to the image with a guillotine paper cutter on the front, marking the image on the back while holding to a light source then use the paper cutter again to cut to that mark. Scissor cut the image out. If needed - I use a Coluzzle and craft knife to cut between the images. I do have a pictorial on my blog if you need photos, click here. ItÂ’s a direct link to the tutorial.
I used AleeneÂ’s Paper Glaze to add dimension to the berries and the highlight dots around the image and also to attach the black pearls.
A black Marvy marker was used to color the very edge of the poinsettia that is out of the box and also the sides of the chipboard flourishes which are attached with AleeneÂ’s tacky glue.
