A Little Bird Told Me......

Hello lovely people, I thought I would start showing the cards I created for the recent Chocolate Baroque television shows that Lesley did for The Craft Channel. This is the first one and has been stamped with A Little Bird Told Me set.

Sadly the picture doesn't show the clouds very well in the background, but I created these with Broken China Distress ink and stamped the little decorative stamp with grey Versafine ink. The bird and cage has been coloured with Polychromos pencils and the background on the bird panel was sponged with a wet wipe and Distress ink.

To get the bird peeking out of the panel I first cut around it's head with a pair of scissors. Then I placed  the torn edge die around the entire image and carefully lifted the birds head over the cutting edge to avoid beheading the little fella!

Many thanks for stopping by.

Hi, thanks for stopping by. Just a quick post to share this birthday card I have made for a friends little girl....hope the birds aren't too scary for her.

The bird stamps are the very familiar images from Stampers Anonymous which I coloured with Polychromos pencils. The little flower background and stamped sentiment are courtesy of Chocolate Baroque's Seasonal Fragments and A Little Bird Told Me . I cut the Happy Birthday on my Scan N Cut and to finish off I masked the centre of the card and applied Dusty Concorde Distress ink with some cut n dry foam.

Thanks for looking xx
