Winner
Design Team's Choice at the Creative Moments Challenge
Oh, I love these "All About Occasions" Challenges, don't you? Michelle is our host this week and I am itching to create another card using those gorgeous birds from the Free As A Bird set.
I got my inspiration for the colouring from this fun bird sculpture beside the card. The bonus is that the birds on the card appear to be looking over at him, playing his cello. For this card I used the long image stamp with the four birds and only stamped three of them on the branch near the top left of the card and then stamped the remaining one on the branch near the bottom right of the card.
I used my ink pads and Aqua Painter to colour in the images. Then I ran the piece through the Big Shot using the Subtles Dynamic Embossing Folder to give it a Linen look. I love the results, don't you? Once I attached it to a base of Balmy Blue and added three tiny Artisan Pearls from the retired Share What You Love embellishments, my card was finished.
I hope you'll check out the wonderful creations by the Watercooler Artists over at our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.

A great idea to stamp the image that way and get so much extra mileage from it and your card is beautiful. But I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your little birdie with the cello - what a fantastically whimsical figure! Excellent.

So adorable!
ReplyDeleteHeidi, What a beautiful card! Yes, they are looking at the sculpture and saying "Hello". It is a very clean and simple card, but says a lot. I love this stamp set too.
ReplyDeleteLovely card Heidi. Love how you got your colour choices form your statue and split that main stamp image over the 2 sides.
