Measurements: Border punch panel – 2 ¾” wide, flower panels – 3 x 2” plus 1/8 and 1/16” borders, image panel – 2 x 3” plus 1/8 and 1/16” borders
-The bear is colored with Prismacolor pencils and I added some Stickles to the bow, heart and flowers on the foot pads. Also added some sparkle to the flower centers on the under panel.
-The double border punch was also embossed and scored, so is the envelope.
-The inside white panel is border punched on both sides.
-The buttons are the five layers of cardstock technique from LynnÂ’s TLC challenge that you can see here. I used designer paper for my top layers.
--The out of the box feature is very easy by cutting to the image with the regular paper cutter on the front, marking the image while holding to a light source on the back then use the paper cutter again to cut to the mark. Scissor cut the image out. My paper cutter is a guillotine style. I also used the Coluzzle to cut between the images...bow tail and foot.
