This is my loser entry for this month's TAC contest, Beautiful Birdies... but I can see why! Go HERE and check all of the winners... Kim's birdie card is fantastic, as are all of the other entries!Here are the deets for mine:
Stamps: Bird Cage, Fleur Birdies, Tag Tidbits, Script Background, Sweet Thing (retired)Paper: Juliette SWIC & Cardstock, White UltraSmooth cs
Ink: VersaMark, Burnt Umber, Toile Pink, Violette & Noir Palettes
Other: Aquacolor crayons w/ Niji brush, Audrey Embellishment Jar, White & Brown Floss, misc. buttons, Angelee Ribbon, Pop Dots & Crystal Lacquer, foam tape
You can barely see in these photos, but I stamped the Script Background in Toile Pink before watercoloring the birdcage image, and stamped the leaf image in VersaMark above the ribbon.
The birdie is popped up & then covered with Crystal Laquer. The 'short &' sentiment was stamped, edged, and then I snipped between letters to curve around the cage and lift off of the card.To finish it all off, I just kept piling on the buttons & flowers!
What do you think?
pst... you should head over to Anna's blog for a big ol' heap of rubber stamp goodness!!

This is great, I love the way you snipped between the letters on the word sweet. That really adds something interesting and different.
