I cut out the aperture in my front panel using a brand new frame die (which arrived today lol) that cuts out a sweet picture frame. Behind the aperture I adhered two layers of tissue papers onto my card base. The top layer was stamped with an old Hero Arts background stamp, while the bottom layer was a coloured piece of tissue paper from my UFO box. The stamped, coloured and die cut deer (Hero Arts/Sizzix) came from my UFO box as well. The sentiment stamp is from the Comfort + joy set by Winnie and Walter.
I'm playing at:
