Oh my gosh, my card today took WAY too long to make!! LOL!!! I hate when that happens!! Anyway, our challenge today is a card...Spring, Easter, anything!!! LOL!!! Here is my 12 hour card ~
So, what do you think of my Bling Bird?? LOL!!! You don't see too many of these flying around your neighborhood now do you?!?!? The base of my card is Whisper White with a mat of Basic Black and then one of the orange shade papers from the Basic Grey Marrakech Collection. The strip down the side is first Whisper White and then another pattern from the Marrakech collection. The little bird is from THIS Prima Crystal Collection and was adhered to the same DP that is down the side and then I cut around the rhinestones. I stamped the branch from Inkadinkado's Delicate Branch set using Always Artichoke ink and then added some shine using my green Copic Spica glitter pen. The ribbon is by May Arts and can be found HERE. I added a flower from the same Prima Crystal set as well as the individual crystals on the bottom right and top left.
Here is a close up of this gorgeous EXTINCT creature ~
Before you go, be sure to check out the girls creations (I am SURE they were not able to create such a gorgeous extinct bird card like me but who knows maybe they made a card with a NORMAL looking bird ~ whatever!!! LOLOLOL!!!) you will surely be inspired!!!
Thank you so much for stopping by!
