It's also for the CCEE Stampers; Frances tells us that tomorrow is Bow Tie Day, and asks us to include any type of bow on our cards. Well, I bought this die set primarily for a moustache card last year, but since it included a bow tie, why not use it!!
Bird Crazy, stamped on a book page and coloured with pencils. Also stamped on white card, which was stamped with Aida Cloth in Forest Moss and sponged a little, then I added the fussy-cut bird.
For the main layer, I used TLC438 Metal Foil Tape Art, instructions in link. I used assorted dies, and drywall mesh under the foil, then used black paint, and a tracing wheel for more texture.
I used the Retro Masculine dies from IO for hat, glasses and bow tie. Because I cut the glasses from a tomato paste tube, they were slightly flexible and I was able to make them a perfect fit, then filling them with Glossy Accents. Hello (SU word die) is also cut from the tomato paste tube. I did the hat with faux suede, black card distressed and pulled apart.

Wow! This is really something! I just love looking at the background! You are so talented. I love that the word and glasses were cut from the tomato paste tube. What a fabulous property that you can slightly bend and form!
