Pretty Parrot

Hello Nomad friends.  I got some crafty bargains yesterday and picked up some new neon alcohol inks.  I decided to have a play because they were surely perfect for the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity Bright and Cheerful challenge.  We want to see your bright and cheerful stamped anythings for January so join us and kick those winter blues.  I've used Lost Coast Designs Polly Parrot on my pretty alcohol ink background.  Polly is a fairly new addition to the Lost Coast Designs catalogue and this is her first outing with me.

 

I made the alcohol ink background and then stamped Polly Parrot directly on the background using archival black ink.  I added some colour to Polly using sharpies and a bit of white gel pen.  I stamped Lost Coast Designs ATC Doodle Heart on red card with sepia archival and fussy cut.  Then I stamped the Carmen's Veranda Weird People sentiment using black archival and cut around the parrots head so I could slip the heart in place.  I used a double stitch die to cut the panel and mounted on a black cardbase.

Thanks for dropping by.   Grab your Bright and Cheerful colours and stamps and join the fun.  The team will be sharing all month, so do pop back hop over and check out their awesome makes and inspiration.

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz
