Frosty Birds

By
This is a card I have made for Mynnette's DT Call which you can find HERE. She has several 'Inkspirational' challenges for us to complete before she chooses her team and this is for her 'Photo Inkspiration' challenge. Here is the pic for us to use


Here is my card


I have used an old retired set for this card called Bird on a Branch and I started with a piece of Basic Gray card stock on to which I sponged some Chocolate Chip ink. I also used the Chocolate Chip to stamp a few branches. The rest were stamped in Versa Mark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. My birds were stamped on to Whisper White card stock with Basic Black ink, cut out and attached using 3D Dimensionals.

There are still two more challenges to complete but Mynnette has very generously given us 'till the end of November to complete them and her challenge blog will start in the New Year - that means that if you fancy being on Mynnette's DT -  there's still time for you to join in too!
Bye for now - Jacqueline xx

    Very nice! I love that branch stamp and especially how you used the chocolate ink to shadow the white embossing.

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...
