Jean is our guest hostess for this month's Tickle a Teapotter - her challenge is here: MMTPT592 It's Tickle Time. When I think feathers, even though I have several feather dies and stamps, I also think birds - there also happened to be a feather stamped in the DOX panel, and I used a feather ef.
Like the Brusho piece on my other card, this DOX panel had been lying around, not a reject but an off-cut from something else. And the other day I was using some DP and the leftovers of that were a good match to the DOX strip. So I laid the DP in the centre of a piece of pearlescent white card and embossed the two with a Crafts Too ef. I edged the DOX panel with a gold pan, and added some gilding flakes to the panel to cover up a blob of ink. The golden branch was cut from one of my tomato paste tubes, and the bird is cut from a piece of Serendipity Squares (see TLC470.

Another amazing creation Sabrina! I've never heard of cutting dies from metal tubes. Interesting idea. Great way to use up left over pieces on your beautiful card!

Another gorgeous, striking creation Sabrina. I love how your offcuts breath life into a new card and of course I always love what you do with tomato paste tubes.

What a gorgeous card this is too Sabrina. The colors are card design are so different from your other card, yet this is equally beautiful. This bird image is so elegant and fancy and just adds a lot of class to the card it is placed on. ~Karen.
