For Judy's Stamp, Punch and Separate TLC challenge. I did initially start by punching inchie squares, but it didn't seem very imaginative so I thought that a tag punch would work pretty well with a background stamp.
So - base stamped with IO music and sponged with Scattered Straw, edged with a silver pen.
Wrinkle free distress on some white card - I think I used Tea Dye, Weathered Wood and Tumbled Glass. Then I stamped French Flair in Smokey Grey, and stamped the birds again with Chipped Sapphire. Punched with an old tag punch, added Summer in the bottom right panel, and popped them up on foam.
Summer is a bit of a mess - I tried a blue EP but it came out very dark so I added red pen to pick up on the swallow colours, and then didn't like it so added blue Stickles. I'd have had to start the whole thing over from scratch otherwise, and I'm more profitable organised in trying to figure out what the problem with my PC is. But it turned out ok-ish in the end. I might add some pearls or sequins or something but I need to fix the computer!!

I love how the birds look like they are in flight (to the melody?)! I like the sentiment with the red, makes me think of hot summer days or a fiery sunset. Nicely done!
