Today's TLC is to add dimension to your card. I cut out the cat tails and glued them on top of the stamped image. The fish is on dimensionals as it jumps out of the water.
Today's CAS is to use plaid. I like that the strip of plaid pulls the colors together AND takes the place of ribbon...less bulk for mailing.
I've seen a couple of these Stampscapes in the galleries this past week and it made me realize that it was a perfect masculine image for my brother-in-law's birthday.

Vicky, this is amazing. Love the reflection of the cabin and trees in the water, and that fish is just about to jump off the card. Fantastic 3d effect.

Fantastic lake scene (it could be on one of our many lakes in MN)...love your dimensional cattails, the ribbon, paper piercing, and that fish..he just about jumped off the screen and into my lap!
