The birds of spring!

I was inspired by Tim's tag for April... Although it doesn't take much for me to pull out a stamp with a bird or something to do with nature! :)  Lisa's Blogger's Challenge this week  is For the Birds. 

Here is my take on Tim's tag:

I started with a frame scrap that I had leftover from a die previously cut. (I went through three of these leftovers before I achieved the effect I wanted. Luckily I had that many of them in my scrap box. :)

Stamp Memory Box Elegant Damask using black ink onto frame. Sponge with orange and brown dye ink.
Die cut branch (Memory Box).  Stamp Memory Box Mail Definition stamp  onto branch and tag using black ink. Sponge branch with brown dye ink.

Stamp bird (Memory Box)  using Broken China onto cardstock. Cut out with scissors. Stamp Sentiment (Memory Box) using black ink on tissue paper. Tear out and sponge with orange and brown dye ink.

Sponge background of tag using blue dye ink and brown dye ink. Distress edges.

Inks: Ranger Archival Ink - Black, Coffee, Ranger Distress Inks - Broken China, Rusty Hinge, Vintage Photo, Walnut Stain

Have a lovely Tuesday!

My friend Lisa hosts a fun challenge on Fridays called Bloggers Challenge. This week's challenge is For the Birds. 

Here is my card For the Birds:

The background was leftover from another project .  It was created with a glimmer mist background stamped over with the Artistic Outpost Ephemeral Backgrounds and Wonderland Collage in brown pigment ink. I stamped the Stampers Anonymous dress form using brown pigment ink. The doily is from Hero arts and is embossed with white embossing powder.  The birds are from a B Line set that I love as it has a set of 7 or 8 birds all in different sizes.

Here is a link to all the challenge entries:



Thanks for stopping by!
