NO WINGS...

hello all,

not too long ago i was the lucky winner of a beautiful cling stamp set from the 

Paper Wings Production.

i finally had time to play with the stamp, here is my project:

No Wings...

-this is the sentiment i used-

(hence the name of my sign/project)

a bit about this project:

the wood patterned paper is from 7 dots studio. it is from the same

  nature walk collection i used for my mini.

i covered some shaped chipboard with this "musical blooms" paper and inked and roughed the edges of it. i also used some walnut ink from tsukineko to make the blotches you see near the bird.

i stamped the bird using some colorbox mix'd media black ink because i wanted a soft look.

for the sentiment i used ranger archival ink because for this i wanted a crisp look.

these birds on a branch are also from the the same stamp set i won: Bird Beauty.

i embossed them with lindseys embossing powders: midnight copper and tannerbaum green gold.

the dripping you see covered with the midnight copper embossing powder was stamped using a recollection stamp set called: splat.

some jute and some black wire makes my project a mini hanging sign.

 this is the stamp set i chose.

the sentiments are so encouraging and the images so pretty.

well, and this is it for today.

hope you enjoyed my project. 

i wanted to share with you the pretty stamp.

i am adding it to the aviary for this month's challenge. it ends tomorrow the 27th at 11pm cst...i am running late. :D

have a great week and a better 4th of july.

thanks for stopping by flowerdisco's scrap hut.

A BOOKMARK FOR DAD

HELLO ALL

hope you are doing great.

i am doing fab....just had my son over for 2 entire weeks, yay!

we spent some priceless time together.

i am so happy.

anyway, since father's day is coming soon i made a bookmark for my husband since he does not like to read, lol....but he can use it at work for some paperwork...mmm, all is paper less anymore, hehe.

i guess i will end up using it myself.

i am calling the bookmark

Oh, Happy Day!

Dad

 i am sharing my project at nanikeola scrapbooking. it was my turn to play with the awesome cold country from 7 dots.

between nature walk and cold country i do not know which one i like better. both collections are beautiful...but then nanikeola have more from 7dots that i am also in love with. the pictures do not do them justice. when you have those papers in front of you...oh my!

on this bookmark i also used some of lindy's stamp gang sprays, some embossing powder, gesso and a  clear stamp set from illumination (another awesome collection from 7dots) . the orangey mini alphas are from messy head (heh, another fab 7dots collection. can you tell how much i like 7dots?) and those mini alphas are so very cute.  

the mini paper clip is from tim holtz. the stamped numbers are from my mind's eye.

 the heart and the tag where i stamped the sentiment are from nature walk. i added some purple dots with some kind of texture media i had in my stash for a while and i rubbed some of it on the edges too. 

 some machine stitching and rough edges of course, :D

well, and this is it for now. i hope you enjoyed my bookmark and i hope inspires you to play with some different media like i am just doing. i still love my die cuts but right now i am having fun getting stained, lol.

thanks for stopping by.

i am absolutely in love with it.

(i won't be explaining much since this is already a long post but if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me in the comments area and i will get back to you as soon as possible).

the word bloom and the saying on the right are from the adorable cling stamp set from paper wings production called "spring".

they stamp so nice.

-back cover-

i dabbled a bit with mixed media on this project using a small amount of ink sprays from lindy's stamp gang, but i have to admit i am a total rookie yet. i still hope you enjoy my project as much as i did. i think it would be the perfect gift to any friend in your life. just add some mini pics and some mini journaling of you own and voila...ready to be a memorable keepsake.

Okay, it's time to send you off to your next stop so head on over to
