Love this paper called Bird Ballad DSP. All the prints are so beautiful.
I used this floral one on the Petal Pink base.
I then added the Pool Party strip of card stock which I ran
through the Basket Weave emboss folder.
I stamped the birds and sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black from
Free As A Bird set and colored the
image with Stampin Blends markers.
I used Old Olive for the leaves, Crumb Cake for the branch,
Flirty Flamingo for the flowers, and Petal Pink for the birds.
I did run the color lifter a bit on the bids belly
to lift some color to make it lighter.
I colored the sky in Pool Party around the image of birds.
I punched the leaves in Old Olive and vellum card stock
with the leaf punch and finished it off two rimmed pearls.
Hope you can play along with Anne Marie's
great sketch challenge this week over at

Thanks for stopping by!

Windy your card is so, so pretty! I love how you brought the DSP to life by incorporating those colours in each of the elements of your card. I particularly like the berty/leaf embellishments that accent your beautifully coloured image - a great addition.
ReplyDeleteI am glad I added the leaves at the end. It pulled it together. Thanks!
