This week's challenge theme is "LEVEL UP". We want to see layers and more layers in your projects. Show us how you level up! Get creative and don't be afraid to think outside of the box. We can't wait to see what you come up with!
Layers is what I used in my project - lots of them!! I've just counted them and there's 13 here.
I know - a cute card isn't my norm but this image just screamed cute at me, and I needed a card for a child. Two birds with one stone :-)
A twisted pyramage of this doll image from the Stitchy Situation set. That's 6 layers on the image alone.
The image was coloured with promarkers then scanned and this printed out 6 times. Cut out using scalloped square nesties. cutting round his top knot and slotted the die so this wouldn't get severed and ink distressed whilst in the die. Layered up and attached to an oval shape die cut.
Then following this month's sketchy challenge on the forum, continued to add yet more layers.
The papers are all from a kit from DuckPond Crafts. All stitched together in theme with the image itself. The twine was machine couched and buttons, all from stash were sewn on.
A card suitable for a child
Your turn folks to show us your layers. Don't forget to visit the blogs of my awesome fellow DT to see their fantabulous work and leave some love.

Dang, girl! You don't play around! When you use layers, you REALLY use layers! Cool technique! I love the side view that shows just how many layers you've added as well as the extra dimension with your stitching and embellishments. Stitchy looks great with his button eyes :)
