You're nobirdy ....'til somebirdy loves you!

This is to enter into the Annabelle Stamps monthly challenge sketch, and the weekly challenge (thank's Sue!) which was 1,2 3......one border stamp, two petals and three sprinkles.  I found this a tough call 'cause I don't work to a recipe usually but I had a go ....... and found it a tough call!


I said in an earlier post that I don't have a favourite colour, but when I look at all the cards completed this month to date, they all (except for two) have blue of some sort in them.  Hmmmm.....maybe I am missing summer?

However, this one had a border stamp repeated three times as a background stamp, and embossed with gold EP.  It has two small flowers and three red sprinkles.  It also has a doily heart, several scalloped circles cut with Nestabilities on the bug, and a stamped image and sentiment from S2G's, coloured with Copics, all layered up  - and I now notice that my photo shows the bottom RHS of the birdies is tucked under the sentiment - it is now pulled out and looks much better!

The details are below:


Stamps:  Shirley's Two Girls - nobirdy
Paper and Card:  SU Barely Banana, tempting Turquoise and Wild Wasabi; Best Creation Inc - Bella (scrap)
Ink:  Momento Close to Cocoa
Other:  Heart doily; Annabelle Sprinkles; Copics; Ribbon (left over from Christmas); flowers; Smooch over the wings, tails and hearts; dimentionals and double sided tape
