Hi everyone, I played around with my Tim Holtz Crazy bird stamps and dies for this hop.  I went wild playing with my Distress Oxide inks.  I used layer techniques and even a water brush to color my birds.


I stamped the image a few times cutting the nose and eyes out independently.  I didn't have to worry about coloring (or lack of color) on the eyes since I put a fresh pair on top after inking the body.



I gave this one to my friend for his birthday already.





You can't see how beautiful these cobalt sequins are, they were recycled.  I think they may have been from a sequin blouse.



I used some unusual sequins I purchased overseas.



Ingredients:
Tim Holtz Crazy Birds and accessories stamps and dies
Distress Oxide inks:  Broken China, Candied Apple, Seedless Preserves, Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Wild Honey, Faded Jeans and Fossilized Amber
washi tape and sequins
We R Memory Keepers paper
Dylsions sentiment stamps
Funny Bones sentiment stamp
Colorbox black ink
Judikins black detail embossing powder
Quick Quotes Cool Grey chalking ink


I would like to enter this in the following challenges:


thanks for stopping by!
