Carl Bird @ SNB

Carl Bird is a June release over at StretchNBubbles .... doesn't he put a smile on your face?  He sure did on mine! Here's what I did with this fun image....

Ingredients used: Image (Carl Bird, SNB), Cardstock (metallic purple - Kaiser, SU), Paper (My Mind's Eye), Ribbon (local discount shop), Markers, Glaze Pens (Black, Orange, by Sakura), Orange Glitter Pen (Sakura), brads, Sequin Flowers (vintage).

This birdie is such a fun fella, I made him orange... maybe next time bright green! I used glaze pens to accent his beak, eyes, and feet. I printed him quite large, so I wanted to keept the rest of the card relatively simple, but I felt compelled to use lots of fun dots!  I created the card topper by layering the paper on the purple matt, adhering ribbons at right angles, and adding brads.  I fixed this to the card base.  I added the flowers to the image by cutting along his wing and sliding the flowers through.  After fixing the image to the card, I added a rub on sentiment..... Thanks for peeping!

hugs and blessings,
Pauline
