2Sketches4You - Sketch #19

Well I don't know where the time has gone this week, seriously I think I started about twelve different cards and only finished a few. Here's one I have finished using the fabulous sketch #19 over at 2Sketches4you by the very talented Laura, thank you!

I've had my eye on this bird die for a long time and it arrived the other day, I have simply cut it from some BG dp and inked the edges! The frame that the bird is sitting on is a BG stamp that I have used with two inks and trimmed around. How nice is it that one of my little oval nesties fit's into cut the shape perfectly! It's been finished off with a gem brad! The leaf is die cut trimmed and stamped with sentiment. The main background has been inked with distress inks and then embossed.

Materials:

Paper: Basic Grey - offbeat, heavy weight cartridge,

Stamps: Basic grey - Bug/B2 Bitsy, PTI - Mixed Messages,

Die's: Nestabilities - ovals, rectangle, Sizzix - Bird with flower, leaves,

Ink: Distress inks, colourbox Q's - mix,

Other: Lace from stash, embossing folder, PM gem brad, 3D foam,

And to show you my eye candy for valentine's woo hoo
