 | | QFTD130 Tribute to Loll as Queen
You know how you get a card in your head and when you make it, it doesn't look anything like the one in your head? Well.. THIS is that card. As I was looking at the picture on my screen I realized several things.
#1. The leaves are way to small, I should have used at LEAST one size bigger if not more.
#2. The branch is coming from inside the window (that IS blue sky in the background) and now the leaves are falling inside the house! How funny is that???
#3. I should never try to case such an awesome card as the one I picked!!!
Because I worked so blessed hard to glue those little leaves on those branches... I am posting this...mostly to give you all a good laugh!
It was made with much love to honor Loll, and I feel bad that it just didn't turn out as expected. It was a beauty in my head... :-)
Here is the card that inspired this one...I have the bird, window, leaves but no birdcage!
Flourish Birdcage by Loll Thompson at Splitcoaststampers
Memory Box Woodland Branch and Memory Box Twigs and Berries
Spellbinder Label Two, cut (using two size dies) in Crumb Cake to make a frame for the outside and in White to stabilize and cover the branches on the inside
Distress ink Tumbled Glass swirled behind bird for sky.
Punch bunch small Maple leaf
I used Tim Holtz Distree Inks: Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade, Rusty Hinge, Peeled Pint and Walnut swirled on some watercolor paper and then punched my leaves out of the various parts of the paper.
My bird is an Impression Obsession Little Chickadee stamp and matching die colored with SU markers and a blender pen
My FAll sentiment is unknown as the packaging from this clear stamp set is long gone :-) I also used Tim Hotlz Distress inks Rusty Hinge, Mustard Seed and Peeled Paint to stamp it in. |
