Seasons Tweetings!

Hello! Down to the wire (literally), so only a few photos for now on. I don't know where my time went this weekend, lol. Sharing this card:

Entering Tuesday Morning Sketch #512:

 Entering HLS WC July Challenge: AG + Option Wings I've played the option:

I painted the frame and the rectangle sky behind the birds with Distress Inks using the Smoosh and the Slap Down techniques, and the birds were colored with Distress markers the red is Sakura gel pen).  I used Avery Elle and Lawn Fawn stamps (birds, branch, sentiment, back siggie) and dies (frame and inside rectangle, flags, birds, branch) to make this card. I used Recollections, DCWV and Office Depot card stocks and Magenta and Rhonna Farrer patterned papers.

I stamped and heat-embossed the clouds and sun on the framed rectangle after smooshing it. I did the Slap Down tech with the larger piece, let it dry under a book, then die cut my flags, and sentiment strip out of it. I watercolored the frame with a brush and a sponge.
