It's Out of My Bits Box with Something New!

Hi there and Welcome! It's a bit dreary here today so

perfect time to show you what I was playing with yesterday.

The new challenge over at the

CAS Watercolour Blog is Live 

and the element we need to use is BIRD.

I rummaged through my bits box

to see what I could find - just in case

there was something there and I didn't need to

make a new watercolour background.

Yay! I was in luck as I found this

 perfect little piece of 

 Brusho Watercoloured Canvas.

Just the right size to heat emboss my 

new not out of the packet stamp

from STAMPlorations called

Bloomtanged ATC #1

Now I am not a colour - in - er type but knew this would 

look amazing behind my type of  colouring -

Watercolour Backgrounds.

I only had to cut a smidgen off my canvas colour

and added it to a sticky background for support

and onto white card stock.

I then got out my Wow Metallic Platinum

Embossing Powder. That was the easy part.

Now just how many bird stamps do we have?

That was the hard part - trying to find

just the right one. After several attempts

I found the one -  from SU. 

Inked up with Memento Sweet Plum,

adding some Nuvo Glitter Gloss and fussy cutting.

She was slightly popped then I added a coloured mat.

This was popped onto Metallic Sculptured card stock.

This was also used as my base.

The simple sentiment is from SU and

finished off my card.

Here is a close up 

I have a watercoloured background, adding heat embossing,

stamping and my BIRD!

I am dropping this card over to the

Creative With Stamps Challenge as it is 

CAS + Sentiment

Happy 2nd Anniversary.

and Pink and Main

for their Spring Themed Challenge

Thanks for dropping in today.

Till next time - Cherrio from
