This is for our Teapot Tickle and Pat wants us to use birds on our cards. I went with a gel print that I had in my stash. It was made by experimenting with alcohol inks as my base and adding more on top of a stencil...I then finished with a shiny/opal white acrylic paint before I did my print. I used one of my small gel plates for this...it's a 3" circle..
My stamp is one I carved a few years ago and did two prints, fussy cut and added to the base. TFL and thanks Pat for the fun challenge.

I love everything about this, Polly! The circular background is so filled with interest and I'm in love with the colors you've used. And you carved that bird stamp?! Call me impressed! I can NOT carve a thing!
