Just felt like using the Teal colours (so many to choose from) for colouring the trees. I stamped and coloured 3 complete trees then fussy cut them out. Two of the trees were cut into segments to create the tiers. Layer the levels with foam tape between sections.
I I foiled a frame with a retired die – any frame would work and then this was backed with cardboard.
I trimmed the coloured cardstocks and glued them to the card front.
Next I heat embossed the sentiment and matted it to the card front.
I mounted the trees to the frame and then stroked highlights around the trees using the pigment powder mixture. (Into a water brush, add about 1cm of water and a pinch of the 2 pigment powders, shake and brush onto your work). I also added a little bit this pearly sheen to the sentiment.
