This is a make-over of a Stacked Card I did in July of 2012 (see top right). Both were done on Shaving Cream backgrounds. Things I feel like I improved on this time:
--Sponging the edges of the shaving cream pieces to give more definition
--More creative use of the surface area--That's what always stumps me on these cards that go on forever after they are open--you have to decorate all those spaces and they have to have a coordinating theme, etc.

Oh yes, I hear you on filling the inside parts of those telescoping cards, not easy!! Love the rusty sponged edges, they give a great autumn feel to go with the leaf.

I love your card and what you've accomplished on this remake!! Cool shaving cream bg - I never would have guessed that. I have trouble with that technique. I LOVE the way you sponged the edges of this new one. It kind of reminds me of AZ colors a bit. You did a super job. I love the leaf too - it looks so rich.

What an awesome technique! I'll have to give this a try some time. You've created a really pretty card with it.
