playing around with this new bird embossing folder.. and the sizzix new Bigs XL card Scallop die cut.
stamp several different foliage stamps across the card, sponge in the sky.. then emboss your image.
I colored the bird with prisma/gamsol, lightly drag green ink pad across the reeds. sponge green and some beige across the bottom for shading..
add some ribbon and just a touch of glitter..
what do you think?
thanks for taking a look today!

I love this! It is absolutely gorgeous. Even though it is doable for a newbie (which i am), it would still be difficult for me to do. So i definitely think you are being too modest in calling this a 1 as far a difficulty level! I haven't seen that Sizzix die. going to buy it today! thanks for showing your beautiful example!

This is unbelievable. I can't get over how you took something I was just fooling around with and ran with it to make something so gorgeous. I bow to your skills and talent.
