Birdbrain and Wine

From the Heart, i {heart} card sketches w/ a tWiSt #143 offered a sketch and an optional twist to add  elements from your stash. I did both this week. This bird is called "Birdbrain Wine" and comes with the sentiment.

I thought I'd give Birdbrain a "feather color treatment" and turned him into a blue bird this time. Do you think he minds? I just loved the background paper and so he just had to be blue this week LOL!

The element is some sparkly enamel dots from my stash. I added some Distress Inks to the image and sentiment. The sentiment and dark purple shapes were die cut with parts of the Darice Nesting Book Pages set. I used a clear gel pen on the glass and Wink of Stella on the bottle. The sentiment is popped for dimensional interest.

Thank you so much for stopping by. I truly enjoy reading your comments!

    1. The whole color scheme started from the two pieces of paper that I came upon in my stash, Karen. I seldom work that way, but maybe I should try picking paper first and then coloring more often :)

    1. Thank you, Darcy. I was watching a video today from Sandy Allnock, and she was showing how to use gesso to make glass look more like glass. I will have to try that one day soon!
