Fabulous projects Amy. I’m looking forward to the video both for the technique and… I’m wondering how you got the edging on the layers. Hand cut with scissors… some new Big Shot trick with a die I don’t have, hmmmm….gonna make me crazy until I figure it out.
So Kiss, Kiss I hope I win so I can play and figure it out too. Thanks for showing us the royal way – Jean

My Suckup: I’m so glad you are so artistic and that you always make such elegant and elaborate projects so that I can click over to your blog anytime to take in their awe-inspiring beauty, and then I don’t have to make them myself in order to admire them! Ha!
I really need the Good Cheer stamp set because I have nothing that is cool and vintagey like that, and I know I’ll never buy it for myself. Plus, I want to stamp the deer head over and over and place him around the house, in books, and backpacks, on the inside of the shower curtain and closet doors and drawers, where my teenage kids will run across him and get creeped out. That deer is smiling like he knows their darkest secrets…LOL…and I want them to be nice, and not naughty. The omnipotent deer head just might scare them into it.
