It is a beautiful spring day here in Melbourne and I am loving the fact that the weather is warm and dry!
I came across a packet of bird wood flourishes this morning and decided that I would use one of the birds for a sympathy card. They are great to use - all I did was ink them up with various coloured inks, a little shading here and there and viola! ...
here is a close up of the bird ...
I have followed the sketch from Sketch Saturday, used ribbons and bows for Crafty Catz and made it a sympathy card for The Pink Elephant.
materials - Kaisercraft watermelon cardstock, white cardstoc; Echo Park 'for the record' papers; AnnaBelle Stamps 'ballerina rose' stamps; Staz On jet black, Versa Color vanilla, topaz, paprika and old rose inks; Black grosgrain; Kaisercraft pearls, bird wood flourish; Fiskars lacy edge punch; Spellbinders labels 4 nesties; 1/8" eyelet; 7mm split ring; Ranger white opal liquid pearls.
Thanks for looking.
