Hi! This card was made for today's Ways To Use It Challenge: Labels.
Okay, so the first thing that came to mind was just using one of the Nestibilites LABELS! LOL! I looked at Speedy the Cat and I swear, he sighed at my lack of creativity. You know, I think he knows when I'm being lazy!LOL... So, I re-read the challenge info. I don't have a label maker that makes embossed word. My label maker makes stuff that looks like I printed it on my computer...Now, I could have used that, but I have NO IDEA where it is!
So, I decided Avery Labels would have to do. I looked through my labels and had these Office Max "Avery knock-offs." I seperated three of them and adhered them to the sticker backing with a 1/8" gutter between them. Next, I stamped the image. I turned it around and stamped more of the tree image to fill the top. Next, I colored with Copics. I decided to airbrush in the sky background.
Next, I stamped the image again on white, colored with Copics and cut it out.
I put the labels through the Cuttlebug with the Nesties Label 3 die and cut it out. Then, I cut out a white Label 3 one size larger. I lined up the labels on the white and added the cut out girl with foam tape. I airbrushed the Prima, to match.

This is going to sound weird, but the minute I saw this it reminded me of you. It really has the "feel" of you about it! Love the airbrushing and the whimsy.
