Hi Everyone! This week, I chose the colors for the Play Date Cafe Creativity Challenge #27, PDCC27. I found these darling little bird feeders in the gift shop at the Carlsbad Flower Fields & photographed them for inspiration :)Here is my interpretation of these colors:This is my first time creating with beautiful Melissa Frances DP & I am hooked! Can't you hear my wallet screaming???? :) I used one of my favorite background stamps from Rubber Stampede - Music Background to create the strip of music paper.
After stamping & cutting out the birdcage, I dressed it up with 3 of my favorite things - a bow, button & butterfly :)
I stenciled this lil' Spellbinders™ Flying Beauty using SU Bashful Blue ink then popped a pearl right in the center.
Supplies Used:
Stamps: MTME Just For You, Hero Arts Birdcage, Rubber Stampede Music Background
Paper: Melissa Frances, SU, PTI
Ink: SU, Memento, Ranger, Copic
Other: Spellbinders™ Shapeabilities Flying Beauties S4- 123, Fiskars scissors, Creative Impressions ribbon, pearl, lace & button from stash
