I don't like to combine the ODBD challenges, but we were away at a conference last weekend and another couple of nights, and I was waiting for my NEW Scripture Collection 6 for the Stamping in Time Assighment. I've combined that with a bird for Shining the Light challenge.
This goes to our hostess at the weekend - we had a wonderful musical session in her house on Saturday evening after it was all over.
5 3/4" square base, with the edges sponged with Vintage Photo.
5 1/2" square of glossy card used for faux linen. I stamped it with an Impression Obsession music score in StazOn Stone Grey, then sanded it and then sponged with Old Paper distress ink. I stamped the bird in Memories Artprint Brown, and the flowers all around the sides and bottom with Peeled Paint distress ink. I distressed the edges and sponged them with Vintage Photo. I gathered the lace, laid it across the top and then stitched all round with a cream thread. Then I wove the leaves and rosebud into the lace, and then added a narrow strip of satin ribbon. Not sure about the pearls, but it looks better with them than without...
Sentiment was stamped with Artprint Brown on more of the glossy card sponged with Old Paper. Once it was dry I cut it with Fancy Tags, and used a green marker to add dots and lines around the edges. I used Versamark and 3 layers of EP to give it a good glossy finish, and popped it up on foam, with a couple more pearls.
