It gave me the perfect opportunity to use a long neglected little stamp I have had for years - an image of a tiny tree and two very tiny birds.
I stamped the image and then coloured with coloured pencils. I used a silver coloured pencil for the outer ring, but its shimmer doesn't show up in the photo. I die cut the image with a stitched circle die.
I die cut a stitched rectangle for a background piece to keep the look of the stitching, and stamped my quite tiny sentiment on it. The image is popped up on fun foam for a bit more dimension.
I used a Quickie glue pen to go over the snow on the tree, the snowflakes in the sky, and the snow lines on the ground. It's so darn hard to get glitter to photograph well, even when I tried to capture it with this close-up:
I'm also linking up to November's CAS Mix Up challenge "Glitter".
Susan, that's gorgeous, I love the tiny image of the cabin and bird so beautifully framed in white.
ReplyDeleteI love this clean, crisp, CAS layout, Susan! The tiny tree and birds really shine with all the white space!
