Another Bird Card

 

It’s a very dark, dreary and rainy day here in Ontario. The cold seems so much colder when it’s this damp out. On the plus side, you don’t have to shovel rain!

                                     
        I enjoyed painting these birds so much (see Monday’s post) I stamped and painted another one using Distress Ink smeared on an acrylic block and a water brush again. This time I took a piece of white cardstock and dipped it in Distress Ink that was smeared on the T.H. mixed media mat; it was sprayed with water and then I quickly tapped the circle into it. I wanted it very faint. The white background is white cardstock that was run thought an embossing folder. The blue strips are left over pieces from other projects…..this is why I keep them all. Martha Stewart ferns were punched from various green paper (I have a little tin full of these. As I have left over green paper I just punch the ferns and add them to the tin so I always have lots on hand) and added around the birds. The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed in white embossing powder. Then I decided it needed something else so silver peel-off strips were added. It is mounted on a dark blue card base that is just a bit darker than the blue paper.

        That’s all for a very rainy Wednesday, on November 25, 2020.

Cheers
