Innertube Birdbrain

From the Heart, i {heart} card sketches w/ a tWiSt #140 offered a sketch and an optional twist to add a shaped card. I always try to do both, but I admit to being baffled as to what a "shaped" card was. Square is a shape and so is rectangle and a circle. Too confused, so, I had to skip that part this week.  I selected this funny birdbrain stamp called Inner Tube Birdbrain. I used my Gina Marie stitched circles and squares and a bit of baker's twine. The edges are done with Distress Inks in Wild Honey. A bit of Wink of Stella was added to the eyes and circles of the inner tube.




 Thanks so much for stopping by. I enjoy reading your comments!

      Thanks, Julie. My first impulse was to do the sky blue, because, well, the sky is blue. But then I though of how happy birdbrain was with the sun shining on a perfect day and the golden warmth of the sun called out to me.

      Thank you, Imke. I can only imagine these happy images with bright colors. I wonder what they would look like with pastels or monochromatic, hummmmm

      Fortunately, I live in Arizona and we have been done with winter for weeks! Not quite warm enough for hopping into the pool with an inner tube and a fancy drink! Thanks for stopping by Pink :)
