Flying high

 


I've used a very old Lawn Fawn stamp set for this card. First I masked off the bottom two thirds of the card, to make sure all the details were "up in the sky". Then I stamped the bird and covered it with masking paper. Next I cut a cloud template from scrap paper and sponged blue ink over it to make a cloudy sky. I added the sentiment then removed all the masks  and  coloured the bird with pencils. 

I am sharing this with 

Perfectly CAS - Wings 



AAA Cards - up to one third (without the twist, unless a bird with big eyelashes counts as a mystical beast!) 



Alphabet Challenge - B is for Bird  

Addicted to CAS - Sky
