After I finished my guest designer post for Scrapstuffz, I had some left over die cuts and ideas. I used one of the tags where I had been experimenting with backgrounds. This one is inked with spritzes and sprays then I added a texture, Goosebumps clear texture spray. Finally when I decided what I was going to do with it, I stamped lightly with a music background stamp in copper. I added lots of left over die cuts. The bird cage, bird and wing were left over from the many layers of birds I created for the first project and use Tim Holtz Sizzix diecuts.. I also used a left over flourish and leaf (Spellbinders) from various other projects. I inked everything up with Quick Quotes mocha moma chalk.
I also had my past passion BEADS! Readers I tell you I may have thousands individual beads, no lie! I have so many I can't do inventory any longer. (It used to be a business for me). So I have added some vintage Czech glass drops, glass drop head pins with ryolite beads and a laser cut wooden musical note to the bird cage.
The bird is cut from coppery glitter paper with the wing on a pop dot but that is a little hard to see.
I am entering this in the following challenges:
http://themixedmediacardchallenge.blogspot.com/2014/07/mmcc-1-touch-of-nature.html until July 25
http://www.tando-creative-challenges.blogspot.com/2014/07/week-4-come-fly-with-me.html until July 31 (no more than 5 challenges)
