Here's my sample card for this week's Featured Stamper, Shellie (shellied). What a fabulous gallery, it was hard for me to choose, but I loved this card with birds: Shellie's Card
I kept Shellie's layout but made it a square card. I also kept the birds on a wire theme but created a bg by sponging with a Papertrey Ink cloud die-cut after masking the birds.
I used pearls instead of dewdrops and colored them with a copic to match.
I also added a sentiment, I thought it went well with these sweet birds from Paper and Such!
