Birds In The Night


I've spent a lot of time with Lawn Fawn stamps and Distress inks today. I forgot how much fun it is to ink up some backgrounds and then splatter them with water. Works particularly well with the darker colours. 

Today's card was inspired first and foremost by the lovely inspiration image over at Just Us Girls. I was inspired by all the green plants and the parrot. I was also inspired by the sketch over at CAS(E) This Sketch and colours over at Color Throwdown. I'm also linking up over at Time Out where the inspiration words are Paint The Flying Spirit Of The Birds Rather than its Feathers. 


Card: 300 gsm white card, Neenah Solar White card, scraps of yellow and purple card
Stamps: Lawn Fawn Critters in the Jungle, Gleeful Gardens, Critters From the Past, Happy Wedding and selected matching dies
Ink and Colouring: Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black, Tim Holtz Distress Ink Wilted Violet, Dusty Concord, Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn, Copics
Dies: Lawn Fawn Starry Skies, Grassy Border, Stitched Borders
