I was drawn to the flamingos in this image but of course had to give them a more dramatic bg using the MFT sketch.
I die cut a "mask" with post-its for the MFT snow drifts cover-up die, snipped off a couple of the horizontal strips so it would fit the sketch, and then placed that on a separate piece of cs. With that in place (and some extra post-its for good measure) as well as a post-it for the sun, I then sponged the 3 sections with DOX inks using multiple colors. Splattered the top 2 sections with water and blotted with paper towel. Added some texture to the sand and the waves, and a bit of extra color to the sun. Die cut my Flamingos from pp as well as cs, , stamped the sentiment (from 2 different MFT sets) and then die cut a frame for the whole panel. Popped up the frame and the flamingoes with dimensional tape. Added sparkly gems for the finishing touch. So much fun to do!
