Things with Wings


I started with a shaving foam background to stamp the bird onto which I then coloured using Spectrum Noir pencils. I covered the bird with a mask and added some weathered wood distress ink to give a shadow effect. I then masked off  a border and stamped the feather stamp. I used a mixture of scattered straw and spiced marmalade distress ink to add some colour and then the pencils again on the feathers. Once I had stamped the sentiment I matted and layered onto orange and brown card.

I am entering this in the Clarity Stamp Challenge No. 23 - Things with Wings.
