I was seeing this Tunnel or Telescope Technique in other Stampin' Up! Demo websites and decided to try it out. It is easy to put together, you want to have a couple raised image levels.

The Designer Series Paper if from the new Scrapbooking Collection, this pack is called Sweet Days of Autumn, the graphics include forest animals, graphic trees and a Old Olive design. Paper packs in the scrapbook line have 12 sheets, 4 of each design.
