LoveFest I Little Birds

Photo Details

Poster: Cook22

Goodness, I did a double-take when I read the Taylored Expressions challenge for LoveFest. I don't know if I've ever done 3 x 3 note cards before!
I pulled out Seasonal Birds, stamped them on watercolour paper and coloured with distress inks. Sponged with Antique Linen, Vintage Photo and some very faint blue on a sponge. Layered up on black and seasonal colours of Bazzill using Lacy Circles.
With the other half of my sheet of pale blue Bazzill I made a little tote for them :D.

These are gorgeous. I think I might have that set hidden away somewhere. I need to look for it now!

We as people are raindrops of colorful ink , falling down Crisp and Clear, each a different shade more vibrant then the last, but once we realize at the bottom of an endless abyss we all fall into the same inkpot forming one color, only then can we come together as one My son.
