Yikes, I need to clean my camera lens. I see little bits of fibre or fluff that definitely aren't on the card. I know, I smudged the black on my first attempt and was taking great, great care with the second. I thought it was my PC screen when I was editing the photo.
IC165, also yesterday's LSC205 Clean and Simple.
I made this for today's IC. I loved some of those pictures with deer, but alas, although I finally gave in and ordered October Afternoons Detours, with that sweet deer, it still hasn't arrived.
So, I had to find something else, and this was it - http://www.elumdesigns.com/public/us...d-Li_Large.jpg.
I thought I had some suitable vellum for making those circles, but my pink was way too strong, so in the end I took half a sheet of plain vellum and sponged it with chalk inks.
The branch is Basic Grey, the bird is Flourishes, the sentiment is SU, all stamped in black. I punched the sentiment out, sponged the edges with the same inks I'd used on the vellum and added two little pink rhinestones. To make the bird blacker than the bough, I just used a slightly wet brush and some more black ink. The circles are attached with those Invisi-dots for vellum, which I don't normally think much of, but for such small areas they seem to work great.
TFL.
