Blue Bird - for TioT's


'Things with Wings', is our next theme at Try It On Tuesdays
This time I am showing you a  4 x 4 inch fat page.
I used a patterned background paper giving it the distress ink treatment round the edges.
Next a bit of stencilling in the corner with grunge paste. I left the stencil in place until it was nearly dry, then dusted it with mica powder.
The bird image [Dina Wakey] was stamped and embossed using a black powder.
This was coloured using paints. 

Please pop over to see what we all made, we hope you will join our challenge.
Thank you for stopping by, the comments you leave are always appreciated.

  13. I like that the paint has a translucent quality to it so you can still see the pattern of the paper shine through the little birdie.
    Really lovely page.
