New, you say? I love new toys! For this one, I'm using a new image (to be released 1/9) DRS Designs. I'm also using a new Cuttlebug embossing folder, Flurries.
This is really a no layer card and for me, that's very rare. The two thin circles are just frames around the image which was stamped on the card front. After masking a circle and adding another circle for the moon, I sponged on the sky colors.
I used the blank embossing tech from TLC245 to do the flurries down the side and leave the image smooth. The frames were added as well as a die cut sentiment.
Thanks so much for looking! I'd love for you to check out the close ups on my blog: The Write Stuff
