Welcome, and thank you for visiting again.

I was sent some of the bird cage and bird die cuts in a RAK by the lovely Shelly Schmidt and challenged myself to use one the other day.
My base card was a piece I had coloured with the Ink, Spray and Smash technique some time ago.
I sponged both the bird, branch and cage with various Tsukineko inks.
The base of the card was stamped lightly to ground the image - the stamp was inked using the Rock and Roll technique.
The gloriously textured ribbon across the top of the card was bought at a Craft fair last year. The lemon ribbon was layered over that and a bow attached over the hole of the cage.
The main card was layered over an apricot paper and then onto a deep cream card base.
