Swirly Bird Thank You

Happy Tuesday, peeps!  This will be short and sweet; the sun is actually shining and I might go to Longwood Gardens to take a walk...we'll see!  The Global Design Project this week is a color challenge:

And the Less Is More challenge is Take 3!!  I LOVE things in threes!!

I needed some simple thank you cards for my customers, and I thought using Swirly Bird, which hasn't seen ink for a while, would be a good start!  So here we go:

I stamped each flower in Daffodil Delight, then added the swirls and smaller flowers in Grapefruit Grove.  The images were then masked and I added leaves in Lemon Lime Twist and some speckles in more Grapefruit Grove.  I decided to try the mirror stamping technique again (you can see details on this post HERE), this time with the solid-image bird stamp.  You can see that the image is not quite as crisp and clear as a regular stamped image, but I smoothed out the color with a blender pen, and he really doesn't look too bad!!!

Stamping his feet was another matter!  I simply stamped it on my silicone mat, then flipped it over and pressed it onto the card...amazingly, it worked fine!  I am just thrilled with this technique!  

A little intense video play:

The look on her face cracks me up!

Thanks for popping by today!  Enjoy your day and be blessed!
