Hello everyone! This week Bobby chose this beautiful spring photo for the Just Us Girls Photo Week challenge. So much inspiration!
I had to choose the birds for my inspiration and chose this layering set from Altenew. I used three shades of yellow and two shades of blue to complete the bird. I stamped the branch in black and colored it with copic markers. I tried a couple of different things for the background and settled on this embossing folder from Sizzix. I used one of those flat brushes from Pink & Main to add color to the embossed parts. I stamped the sentiment, added the bird (which was die cut two more times and layered for dimension), the tree, and some blue crystals. I matted the main panel onto a blue panel before adding it to the base. I also added shimmer to the dark blue parts on the bird.
You can see more from the JUGs design team and our March guest, JoAnn, on the JUGs blog. This is JoAnn's last week with us and I'd like to thank her for creating such wonderful cards for our March challenges.
Thanks for stopping by!
