love the graphic nature of Joom's art, Stef! But this IC was difficult for me...could be it was the wee hour of the morn...couldn't even tell you how many times I sifted through my image book hoping inspiration would FLY off the page and strike me...
In the end what worked for me was this wonderful, dainty silhouetted bell-shaped flowers. It is an unmounted image (I think from Purple Onion Designs. I inked it with both Adirondack stream and TH di broken china and stamped on and off across the bottom of my SU baja breeze paper. I then used the Cuttlebug folder, bird on a branch to add depth. I stamped Invoke Arts birds nest ticket on acetate with Stazon timber brown. The suede aqua ribbon was threaded through the back side using the SU slot punch and I added my sentiment directly with TH di walnut stain. Flap your wings and fly is a CHF image. The wooden button is one of my bag o treasures from Julia (artystamper) thanks so much...I let one of them go! I mounted onto a GP white cs.
I appreciate your comments on my work. Have a wonderful weekend... skitter with aplomb!
