This is for our very own SCSer, Marie-alice aka Alice aka Ladybug91743.
I want Alice to know she is not alone. Most of us here at SCS have never met and chances are we never will, but with a click of button, we are not alone. Someone is always awake at Splitcoaststamperville.
About this card, the usual smack of distress ink onto a large sheet of aluminium foil followed by a big squirt of water, dunk the cardstock in the inky puddle. Sprinkled Brusho powder on card, squirt on more water....not happy yet, so out came the big guns...squirt Dylusions ink spray on the al foil and yep...squirt on more water, dunk the cardstock in the inky puddle and move around until happy.
A little bit of stenciling and stamping on the dried background, doodle border and doohicky sticks, add white dots.
The birds were stamped onto a rejected piece of purple (same method as above), fussy cut and adhered to card. Draw on long legs, add boots and sentiment.
I hope this brings a smile to Alice.

Just catching my breath after getting back from 'holiday' as you say, but had to come and comment on these awesome background and FABULOUS looking cool birds - if this doesn't get Marie-Alice to smile, knowing friends here are always 'nearby', I don't know what would!! Gotta LOVE those fun boots!!
