Happy Chicka Challenge Tuesday! Our challenge this week: thankfulness! You can pull that off-right?
I saw a card like this in a recent edition of Stampin Success (magazine for SU! demo's). I absolutely loved the whole concept the minute I saw it!
My colors are a bit wonky in the scan--it looks much better IRL. Trust, I say!
I cut each "hill" with my nifty little Cutter Kit tool from Stampin' Up! It's a great tool for free hand cutting--and lots of other goodies, too! Check it out!
I mounted the first "hill" on a piece of Confetti white and then stamped my favorite tree from Hambo Stamps. I pieced a chocolate chip designer paper for the tree trunk and colored the top with Copic markers. The subsequent "hill" are mounted on top of each other with dimensionals--the top "hill" as two layers of the same.
The sentiment is from a SU! set, as well. I think I will play around more with this concept because it is tres cute!!
The Chickas created today....you will so want to go check it out! Please play......all you have to do is make a project expressing thankfulness and post it in the comments either here or there. Easy Peasy!
TTFN, Jane
Perfectly cut out hills...the effect is very beautiful! TFS and happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Jane! Take care:)

Happy Thanksgiving, Jane.
I would do the challenge but I'm not sure when it has to be done :) Always working within deadlines, aren't we?
