Layer it for Seize the Birthday

 

Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and our wonderful leader Nancy wants us to use layers!

Or add to your birthday stash with our anything goes option

Our party guest Leslie and my team mates have loads of inspiration for you over at the blog so I hope you can play along.

I used a new to me layering die for this challenge. Altenew's gentle giraffes.

One of my favourite animals!

I used a tan/kraft card for the top 2 layers and inked them up with distress inks in antique linen and tea dye with a touch of brushed corduroy to give some shading. The base layer is a chocolate brown.

I inked up the background with oxides and a frame stencil, added some greenery

 and a sticker sentiment.

I'm linking up to these challenges:

I've used both dies and a stencil frame
