My sweet friend Judy Jung sent me this unmounted chicadee stamp last spring, and I thought it would be fun to try and cut it out and use it instead of my usual flowers for the CASE Study challenge, based on a card by Maki Jones. I colored them with watercolor pencils, blending with a Dove Blender, then cut it out and added some red metallic gems. The sentiment is from a clear Hero Arts Thanksgiving set, and the papers used for the background and label are from K&Company fall mat pads.
Oh, I love this, Lin! You do birds just as wonderful as you do flowers! I know we'll be seeing these chickadees again. Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteYour card is so beautiful and the coloring is gorgeous. Love the stamp with the chickadees.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet card - I always wondered what a chickadee was! They look very like our coal tits or maybe a willow tit. That colouring is perfect and such warm autumn colours - love it.
ReplyDeleteI hope you don't mind Lin but I've been lucky enough to receive a blog award this week and would love to pass it on to you. Please don't feel obliged to accept! I know some bloggers don't like them.
Oh what a sweet card! Your colouring is gorgeous on those birds - I didn't even realise a chicadee was a type of bird! LOL!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for taking part in this week's CASE study!
