Nesting Time

Hello Nomad friends.  It's time for a new challenge at the Lost Coast Portal of Creativity and we want to see birds on your stamped creations.  Now that's an easy topic isn't it???   Here's my inspiration....

The ravens have started gathering in the tall trees here in preparation for nesting.  We always used to say if they nest high it's gonna be a good summer.  Let's hope.....

I used Lost Coast Designs Tall Trees Background and stamped with Library Green archival onto white card.  Then I used various stamps from Lost Coast Designs Pieces of Calligraphy set and various green, with a little bit of orange, archival inks to add interest.  I blended it all together and covered white spaces with a smudge of Prickly Pear ink.   I stamped Lost Coast Designs MRaven1 on white card, added some cracked sapphire and marmalade distress colour, fussy cut and added him to my woodland scene.  

 
 
Hope you get time to join the Tweet This! challenge.   Don't forget real rubber or clear stamping and the theme must be the focus of your project for a chance at the prize!

Thanks for dropping by.   Hugz

As You Like It Challenge - Interactive or Not I like interactive cards, but they do take a lot of extra time and effort so actually I'll stick with not for most of the time.

Great card, Gail. I always love how you mix bold, strong images to make such impactful scenes. The crows have kept us entertained today by ripping large twigs from the trees to build their nests. Hugs, Jo x
