We've got a new challenge for you at Seize The Birthday - Birds.
I've had these little red rubber stamps (Crafty Individuals) for a while now, and I thought it was high time I used them. I stamped them on white card, coloured and fussy cut them, then layered them onto a piece of patterned paper, and a diecut frame (STAMPlorations), added a Tim Holtz die cut, a sentiment from my new set Baa Baa. Added some grunge stamping in Pickled Raspberry and Squeezed Lemonade on the base card to mimic the patterned paper and called it done.
Pop on over to the Seize The Birthday blog for some fab inspiration from the team, and our surprise birthday guest, Kim, and play along with us. If birds aren't your thing, you can still play along with any birthday-themed project. See you in the gallery!
I love this! The way your card base complements the patterned paper is awesome, as are the sweet birds.
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet birdies, Shirley. Love your DSP, die cut tea cups and sponged card front for your mixed media main image. TFS my friend. Hugs
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, Shirley ... those lacy decorated tea cups are perfect with the delicate little birds! Hugs, Anita :)

Your combination of pattern paper and the base are really so classy. I must remember to do that. Thanks for the inspiration.
