Our June challenge is Winged Whimsy:

Let your creation soar by featuring wings! Think butterflies, birds, feathers or related sentiments. Celebrate the beauty of flight! Whether you draw inspiration from the graphic or fly a solo mission, let's see some winged beauties!
What a fabulous challenge for June! It was nice to look through all the Verve goodies and find the winged image for this card. I chose to use this sweet little bird in With Love.
I started by stamping the trio in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then I stamped them again on little sticky notes. I cut out the images on the sticky notes and then masked the image, so I could then stamp the distressed dots from Better Together. I stamped the sentiment from With Love in black ink and then added some yellow sequins from the Pastel Sequin Mix.

ReplyDeleteThis is a delightful card. The yellow birds make it so bright and cheery and I think using the distressed dots to create a ground for the birds to stand on was a brilliant idea. Well done.
