Free as a Bird - by Penny

Goodly morning everybody, I'm back again to tempt and inspire you all with the first of my samples from last months Chocolate Baroque shows.  This one features stamps from the Birdcage Collage, Amazing Mackintosh Words, and Decorative Edges sets; I also used Distress Inks, marker pens, and a few bits and pieces from my stash.     



I began with a piece of white card and blended the inks on it.  I then stamped and embossed the Harlequin border on one side of the panel, matted it onto black card and attached it to a white base card. 



On a seperate piece of card I stamped the Birdcage Collage image and coloured it with pens.  I then fussy cut the image and attached it to the card,  I added a couple of die cut feathers and a couple of pearls from my stash.  To complete the design I stamped and embossed a sentiment onto white card, die cut and embossed it, added ink and some pearls then attached it to the card. 

I hope you have enjoyed reading my post today, thank you for dropping in and spending a little time with me. 

I'll be back later in the month with another crafty project,

see you then,

  3. What beautiful colours Penny, and the shiny harlequin embossing complements your very prettily coloured Birdcage Collage image perfectly. I love the black mat and the touch of black around the sentiment plate, and also the die cut feathers and the added pearls. A gorgeous card. x
