I've been working on this one for a long time. I had such a hard time seeing the details of the image. I colored and discarded a few pieces. Finally, Christmas Eve and it still wasn't done. I downloaded the image from the manufacturer's website, and used a magnifying glass. I decided to stick to my Tombow Markers since I could control them more easily than the chalk I had tried. Almost finished and disaster strikes.
Card measures 6“x 5 1/2”. Cardstock: Bazzill Ruby Slipper, SU Very Vanilla, unknown very dark brown Impression Obsession's Draft Horse (This was a wonderful RAK from Gram-pea; thank you, Deborah.) Versafine Onyx Black ink on vellum Ranger's Superfine EP Tombow Markers: Blender pen, greens (177, 249), red (837), browns (947, 977, 879)
SU Marker, Really Rust
Adirondack Pigment Marker, Latte for the pine cones, heat embossed with clear EP because I wasn't sure the pigment ink would dry on the vellum.
Spica Gold pen & Sakura's Gelly Roll Glaze Pen, dark red
Copper mini brads from American Crafts
Finally, almost finished. Then I put the vellum with the colored image through the Xyron machine to add adhesive. The vellum wrinkled badly. I pulled off the backing and put the image on cardstock, smoothing the vellum as I went. I had to cut the image out to get rid of the worse of the wrinkles. There's still one wrinkle on the image, but there was no time to do the whole thing again.
I spent some time picking out the cardstock to use, and then I added copper mini brads. I used a piercing tool to put the holes through the top two layers of cardstock. That made it easy to insert the brads.
Thanks for looking. Daria
ETA: The dark brown card goes all the way around. The scan cut off the very top of the card.
