and happy Wednesday to you...
Today Carol is our hostess over at Stampotique, and she want us to make something around the theme "April Showers". This is what she said:
' I love the early months of the year and to me I only have to hear the month April and
instantly in my head the song from Bambie is playing, and I am now humming, bom, bom
little April showers, so use water, rain and April showers as your inspiration this week xx'
Here is mine :
This is a page in my Moleskine journal. I painted the page with Paper Artsy Fresco Paints in yellow and two shades of orange. I kept it very subtle. I stamped 'Folded Tags' on the page with orange ink and clear embossed it. It is almost invisible. I then used 'Fax to Wolfgang' to stamp some random text. I used a top of a spray bottle and some black ink to make the rings. I used the 'Stack of birds' stamp for my main image but decided to cut them apart. I coloured and clear embossed them and cut them out. And because it was raining I gave them an umbrella made out of France's 'Carrousel' stamp. I drew the handle and coloured and embossed it. The drops were all hand drawn, coloured and cut out by me !!! I glued them on the page in a random pattern. When everything was adhered to the page I used a Copic Marker and coloured under the birds to ground them.
Thanks for stopping by !
Hope you like it.....

Gaaf dat contrast tussen de vogels en de rest van de kaart; mooi! Groetjes, Gerrina
ReplyDeletelove those birds :)
ReplyDeleteI really admire how you can look at one of the Stampotique stamps and see the possibilities of using just pieces'n'parts of them, as you have done here! Such a clever umbrella to shelter your family of birds! Strong colors, too, which I love!
ReplyDeleteThose birds are fabulous and they are also such fun.
ReplyDeleteWhat a brilliant page you created.
