Asian bird

 

 
Hi everyone,
I have made a tag for the current challenge at Tag Along
I trimmed down a background that I found in my 'playing' box, it has white gesso and 'sploshed' DI. 
I rounded the corners to make a tag shape.
I stamped the bird which is from a set by Stampin Up called asian artistry.
I then added some random stamping in DI wilted violet with a set from Paper Artsy -"Gentlemen plate 4'
I added a number 8 as that is a lucky number for Asians, and also stapled a fancy bow to the top

Challenges
Tag Along - include a number
Allsorts - Make your own background

Gone fishing

 


Hello all

My card today uses a stamp set from Sullivans.net which I have had for a number of years. I cannot see it on their website, so I assume that they have stopped making stamps

I coloured it with the following markers

Promarkers - cinnamon and cornflower

Copics - olive, burnt umber and baby skin pink

I used mounting tape to raise the image up from the base kraft card
