I wasn't going to bother uploading this, but DH liked it, and on a dark rainy evening at least it's a promise of summer. It's loosely based on this picture here - http://www.lang.com/images/LNGitem/a...1002130_lg.jpg from the Inspiration Challenge this week.
OK, so the bird is a bit out of scale, (a lot out of scale!!) but bird stamps aren't something I have a lot of, so I just had to make do with what I did have.
I stamped the flowers, masked them, stamped the grass and then sponged over it with green and blue while the masks were still in place. I used markers on the Flourishes bird, misted them, and then added some white markings and an eye with gel pens. It's matted onto green and orange Bazzill, with punched ovals, a yellow brad and a brown wooden bead.

I'll try to get a better picture tomorrow, too. It really is dark and rainy here!

Sabrina, this is so pretty and very summery! Wish it were summer here. It's snowing again. Sigh. Beautiful creation, thanks for sharing.
