Pretty amazing week so far with awards from both Frilly and Funkie and Virginia's View for my artwork - feeling humbled and energised by that recognition!
Playing with bird stamps again! Got these from my lovely hubbie for my birthday - Tim Holtz's Bird Feathers set. Remember the vintage notebook cover that I binned? Well I decided to give it another go! Once again I went for a flat, practical finish but added a metal token for a little texture.
It's practically all Tim's stuff - Distress Inks, Layering Stencils, Stampers Anon stamps...... I was inspired by playing with the Layering Stencils, which were the subject of Tim's Tags this month, so I am entering this into the A Vintage Journey - Wings & Things Challenge.
Thanks for visiting!

I love the layering of the stencils and the subtle feathers:)
ReplyDeleteLove the colors you have chosen. Although you say it is flat, it seems that the birds are coming off the page . Very nice!! Thanks for traveling with us here at A Vintage Journey.
ReplyDeleteThat's gorgeous I love the stamps and if you want to bin this one, fling it my way please ;) Elizabeth xxx
