It is Australia Day here and a day we all celebrate, often with a BBQ - who doesn't love that! Australia has been my home for 32 years this year and I count myself blessed to be here - it is a wonderful place!
My card today is created using an image from Glitz - I love this image that has been stamped using Tsukineko Versafine in Vintage Sepia and cut out using the Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals LG and Floral Ovals Nestabilities®
I have added a little bit of colour to the bird using Tsukineko Memento Markers - just lightly, along with a touch of shimmer to the wings. This has been layered using foam tape onto the Floral Ovals Nestabilities® and in turn layered onto patterned paper cut using the Spellinders™ Grand Calibur® Machine and 5 x 7 Detailed Scallops Nestabilities®
The sentiment is made from some stickers from my stash and added to the 5 x 7 Detailed Scallops Nestabilities®. The white card has been sponged, using the Die as a Stencil, before removing from the Die.
I have finished off by using some Want2Scrap Bling Swirls Finesse - Rhinestones

Beautiful card. The image is so pretty and the colours showcase him so well. Wonderful use of those lacy die cuts. Thanks for joining our Love challenge at Fat Pages and Cards With Attitude. I hope we see you again soon.
ReplyDeleteLinda, your softly colored bird looks fabulous as the focus on this delicately layered card. Lovin' your use of the checkerboard embossed background too! So glad to see another entry at the Crafts and Me Stamps digi team's "vintage" challenge. Hugz, ~ Rose
