flutter

 hello crafty stampers!

I have a card for you today that should put a smile on your face.  Purely by chance, I found the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers blog and got such a giggle out of it, I had to have a go at their challenge. The current one is SOSS #183

Now I own zero snarky stamps, so perhaps more of a challenge for me. But I figured I'd use what words I had to convey a similar idea. I'm hoping I hit the mark!

I started by stamping the bird on ink covered card then cut him out. I blended ink for the background on a card panel, stamped around the edge and also inked the edge. Then I stamped the bird on the card panel, glued the blue bird over the stamped image. I stamped the words and inked their edges and foam taped them onto the card panel. Then glued the panel onto a card base.

I just love this bird - now he has attitude! Bit like my cat. 💙

Edit: Thank you so much for crowning me Queen Rachel for this challenge - I'm thrilled and honoured! 


Supplies:

distress oxide inks: tumbled glass, salty ocean, chipped sapphire, archival ink jet black

darkroom door stamps: garden birds, Wildflowers Vol 1, alphabet medley, flourish texture stamp

other various stamps
