I made this for today's sketch challenge. Just heading back to bed to try and shake this cold off for once and for all, I'll take another photo tomorrow showing the inside. Inside has a verse from the same ODBD set as the bird - Psalm 91.4
A2 base. I cut most of the front off, embossed the bottom with a Darice ef and then added a brown and burgundy lace trim cut with Faux Crochet die-namics. I used a marker on the embossed areas of the music. Also added a grosgrain bow and some tiny green pearls.
ODBD bird stamped on watercolour paper and coloured with distress inks - Crushed Olive, Tea Dye, Brushed Corduroy, Soot Black, Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick. I stamped a frame all round with Vintage Vogue and Shabby Shutters, and stamped the same on the base. Image panel layered on brown and burgundy. I added Glossy Accents to the berries.
