Those Crazy Birds again

Hello, I am back today with another Bird Crazy card and

this is one that I have made for the shop.

I have used a Tim Holtz stencil and distress inks for the background.

The sentiment is by stampendous and a verse my mum used to say to me when I was young.

I have stamped the bird out in archival coffee and coloured with distress makers.

I used the dies to cut my bird out and cut another wing and set of eyes to decoupage 

Products used are-

Tim Holtz bird crazy stamps

Tim Holtz bird crazy cutting dies

Tim Holtz stencil 'Rays'

Stampendous sentiment 'Sunshine face' 

Archival coffee to stamp with

Distress ink pads for rays in- Scattered straw 

                                            Mustard seed 

                                         Rusty hinge

Distress markers for bird in- Antique linen

                                      Tea dye 

                                                   Mermaid lagoon

                                              Mowed lawn

Have a lovely weekend and I promise my next post will be bird free

Tim Holtz - Crazy Birds

Hello, it's me, Louise with a blog post to tell you about the crazy birds that have landed

 here at Sir Stampalot.

The new Tim Holtz stamps are just flying out the door (sorry could not resist)

One of our lovely customers (Maggie Moore) came in with this fabulous card to show

 us using the stamps and the dies that match.

The dies are pretty amazing they cut really close to the stamped image and if you are like me and hate cutting out too much these are a must have.

Maggie teamed one of the birds with the woodware wreath stamp for a

 fun Christmas card

but the stamps can be used for lots of occasions

 Items used are -

Crazy bird stamp set

Crazy bird dies

Cream shrink plastic (used on sweets and bauble)

Woodware wreath

Black and white enamel for the eyes (makes the eyes look great )

Spellbinders curved matting basic A 

Bye for now
