Bit of a strange post title I know but it's early and my brain isn't at full capacity yet (need my 2nd mug of tea!) Anyway, I've been drawing up some new digis which will work as background frames for any number of the fab images out there from all those amazing digi artists - I wanted to come up with some backing frames that could be merged with an image and used to create a one layer card, giving the impression of several layers. Does that make any sense at all????
Maybe I should show you what I mean -
Now I won't attempt to explain how to merge digital images here, you can see from my waffling above that I don't have any expertise in explaining things clearly but I will give you some links that show you how to do so here, here , and here. (that really sounds like I'm doing the airplane emergency evacuation speech!)
So, with the frame done and available from Can You Digi It (my digis are all under the name 'LilyPink Designs'). I decided to make a one layer card with it. I merged a fave image from Kenny K on top of the frame and coloured the whole thing with Copics.
So, a one layer card that looks like it has several layers - does it make sense now?
I would like to enter this into the challenges at Kenny K's Krafty Krew , One Stitch at a Time , Corrosive Challenge , The Paper Players , Colour Me Creative and Through the Craftroom Door.
Thanks for stopping by today :)

Wow. Now you're making me want to try my hand at digitally composing card elements.
Sigh.
This is wonderful! It really looks like a multi-layered card. It's hard to believe that it's just one layer.
Fabulous job coloring and shading all the elements of this fantastic card!
