Season's tweetings

Hello and welcome to the blog. In addition to getting back on track with my Christmas card making, I'm also trying to shop my stash and use products that have been waiting to be used. For today's card I combined these sweet sparrows by Lawn Fawn (a small set that jumped into my shopping basket a few months ago) with a large die by Sheena Douglas which I have had for quite some time. I simply snipped off a part of the die cut to fit my card and used some distress ink to add colour.


I masked off the stamped birds to do some soft ink blending on the background before colouring in my images using Copics.

I'm playing at:

Jingle Belles - Three of a kind


HLS Christmas - Anything goes


Sparkles Christmas - Feature a creature

Winter Wonderland - Cute Christmas

SSS Wednesday - Animal antics

    These are the kinds of tweets I enjoy! An adorable card and I agree with Stefanie: the branch extending beyond the frame is a beautiful touch!

    Wat een goed voorbeeld, dat je met heel weinig middelen, zo'n schattige verhaal weet te vertellen. En mooie diepte creëert met gebruik van 1 kleurpotlood. Leuk hoor, Mar. Liefs, Ineke☀️
