Bird on a Branch – Marianne Creatable

 

I’ve chosen to showcase the wonderful array of Tim Holtz Distress inks that One Crazy Stamper has in the store and a beautiful die from the  Marianne Creatable’s collection.  I used the Spellbinder scalloped rectangles, using the negative to blend the distress ink onto my 5” x 5” vanilla cardstock.  Masking and overlapping the stencil created the foreground / background effect.

The Bird on a Branch was cut and embossed and then I used a sponge dauber to apply ink to give the die cut dimension.  I also sponged the My Mind's Eye button and die cut to give a little dimension.  Brads, a suede cord and a sentiment were added from stash. The knot on the suede cord is called a Double Carrick knot.

April is “Masculine” month for the challenge at OCS – Can’t wait to see your creations, for a chance to win free stuff.
