Hello my friends!
It's time for challenge #3 over on the Artsystamper Challenge
for Artsystamper Digitals by Beverly Cole. We have a new challenge on
the 1st and 3rd Monday of each month and we would love to have you come
join in the fun!
Today's theme is ...
MONOCHROMATIC
Now
remember, it's NOT required that you use Bev's amazing images to join
in the challenge (of course if you have them we'd love to see them).
But, the very talented design team will be not only following the theme
but will be using Bev's paper, images, etc. for their creations.
Here's what I have to share using one of the fabulous birds in the Snow Birds Set . . .
This set features more than just one beautiful
'Snow Bird' and I can think of SO MANY ways I want to create with these
beautiful birds.
Isn't he gorgeous?
I wanted to bring focus to this bluejay and I think I was successful!
I've printed my image, die cut it using an oval scalloped die set then backed it
using the same pattern but a rectangle die set. A darker blue snowflake ribbon
and satin ribbon adds contrast just like the blue colors in a bluejays feathers!
Here's a peek at this fabulous Snow Birds Stamp Set.

Don't forget, the winner of our challenges will receive the stamp set of their choice from TheArtsystamperShop.
Beverly Cole's selections offer stamps and sentiments in each set as
well as pre-colored images for easy, last minute cards. Why not take a
moment and check out what she has in the store!!

Amazing bird! Love the softness of your card!
ReplyDeleteI love your papers and beautiful bow. The blue jay is a regular at our bird feeder. They are a pretty bird. We also get the bluebirds and many others. Now that the cooler weather is starting to move in we'll see more of the seasonal birds passing through. [Bunny]`
ReplyDeleteLove this card, Darlene! Your oval is perfect to set him off. Thanks so much for featuring the challenge and my blue jay on your blog.

ReplyDeleteOh, my gosh, this is a beautiful set and a gorgeous card! I've said it before but, honestly, you and these digi stamps are a match made in heaven!

Darlene, your bluejay sitting on his pine branch is just beautiful! I love his snowy background and that gorgeous blue bow!! Thanks for sharing this with the Paper Players this week!
ReplyDeleteDar, your monochromatic blue jay not only looks real, but is beyond gorgeous! Such a lovely creation - it should be hanging as someone's home decor! So glad I got to see your critter project showcased at the 2 Crafty Critter Crazies Challenge. Hope to see more of your creations in the future.
