LOC Vintage Bird

I have had fun creating my own DP using the Layers of Color Touch of Elegance Clear Art Stamps.  I used three shades of Distressing Inks - Scattered Straw, Walnut Stain and  a blue, stamping some of the images from the set randomly onto the page

 

The Backyard Bird has been cut out using the Oval Nestibililtie the bird is coloured with SU Chalks and has had Kindy Glitz lightly added to give the bird some shimmer!  This is then layered onto the Labels 4 Nestibilitie that has been embossed with the Textiles Embossing Folder.

A gorgeous flower from Wild Orchid Flowers is added and some lace flowers which are part of a RAK from Gunn placed either side, followed by some Chocolate Kaiser half pearls

The final touch is this gorgeous lace that was sent to me by my Mum Lesley Aka SuperNan - it belonged to my Great Grandmother - beautiful isn't it!
