It's Inspiration Tuesday at STAMPlorations, and I've got a little sneak peek of what's coming in an hour from now - my newest stamp set, Fowl Play! I've paired my chickie with balloons from Becca's A Snarky Birthday To You.
I'm adding this to Darnell's NBUS #10. Not only are the stamps NBUS, but the grass is too - it's a Sharpie Paint Pen which I've had for ages and never used. No optional bubblewrap for me today, but I'm sure I'll be back to play again with bubblewrap.
And to Less Is More (I haven't played there in ages!) where the theme is one or more balloons.
While we're on the subject of balloons and bubblewrap, there's some popping to do. Pop on over to the STAMPlorations blog for more fabulous inspiration from the design team, and leave a comment for a chance to win gift certificate. Then pop back in an hour for more of my Fowl Play stamps.
Speaking of which, if you are thinking of buying any stamps, stencils or dies from STAMPlorations, you can get 20% off, even on sale prices, if you use my code STAMPGIRLSHIRLEY at the checkout.
I come to your blog and instantly feel like I'm in the presence of wonder. Your sense of artistry is incomparable, Shirley and I'm always awed by what you design. LOVE the Abbey Road!
ReplyDeleteso nice!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic card! I absolutely love how you've used a black background so the bird and balloons really pop against it. The Sharpie paint pen has done a super job of the grass and shows up much more than I would have expected. Love it! Thanks so much for playing with us at Less is More :)
ReplyDeleteA cute and adorable card design.
ReplyDeleteYour image really pops on the dark background. Terrific card. Thanks for sharing at Less is More!
ReplyDeleteOh how those colors come alive on the black!
ReplyDeleteA black background is something that I rarely do...but that is going to change cuz it looks so cool! Love the bold contrast of the pastel colors paired with the black!
ReplyDeleteAdorably bold and fun Shirley. Love the bright colours and fun image against black. Thanks for playing with us at Less is More. Sarah
ReplyDeleteLove your awesome card. The bird and balloons are so cute.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute chickie, Shirley ... she pops so wonderfully against the black ... as do her balloons ... so fun! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteThis is super fun, Shirley. Love those pops of colour against the dark base. I must remember to use more than just white!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing with us at Less is More, Anita x
Your bird is simply wonderful with his long legs and toting his bouquet of balloons! As you know, I'm terrified of birds, but not yours...they're marvelously friendly *grin*
