Peony and the birdcaged!

Hi Everyone,

For my card today, I colored up  "Peony" and it's one of my favorite by the amazing artist ching-chou kuik who's whole collection you can find HERE.!

This image, "Peony", can you find here,on  plate 97.:)

Sometimes it's hard for me to start coloring, but Sweet Pea Stamps stamps weave their own enchantment over me by the time I'm finished coloring the image:).

I coloring this beauty with my Copics:).

The flowers are a mix of Prima, and this beautiful DP is from Pion Design!

This bird cage and bird are from a Tim Holtz dies, and I've added some brown Sisal grass inside the cage, to make it look like a nest!:) On the bird I've used tissue paper.

All the edges are distressed with Distress ink-Vintage Photo, and sewed with my sewing machine!:)

Here is a close up of the image, beautiful "Peony", and you can find here HERE

A Pair by ching chou kuik

Today I would like to share two cards with you, both images come from the ching-chou kuik collection.

This first card features the image titled Peony, I just love the little bird in her hand, so sweet. She was colored with copics, prima flowers and papers, and a sticker sentiment.

My second card features In the Wind, doesn't she look dreamy? Also colored with copics, the papers are prima and the flowers are Hero Arts.

 

I hope you have enjoyed your stop today, I love to see your comments. Have a great week!

Happy Birdday

I think I dare to say that spring has finally arrived to my part of the world. With the sun out and the birds singing I got inspired to make a card with one of my newest (and soon to be favourite) stamp. I just LOVE the bird theme. The image I have here is called Peony and it's one of the newer ones by ching chou kuik. It's from plate 97.

The papers I have are from die cuts with a view Mariposa line. I got them from my sweetheart after his trip to the US :) Unfortunately the pics don't do the papers justice. They are very glittery and the birdcage background is in gold foil. As the papers were so beautiful I wanted to keep the layout simple and make them work with the image. After choosing the papers I coloured the image with promarkers to match. The text is handwritten. Oh, and I added some gold glitter glue to her flower to make it match the papers and stand out a bit. Hope you can feel the spring coming too.
