Birdie Hugs

Good Morning Everyone

Today im sharing a little Hugs card for a friend.  Using more new Katzelkraft stamps of these fabulous quirky birds, combining them with ombre papers.



DL in size.  I took a piece of this fab ombre paper for the background, i felt it looked like a night sky so after cutting to size i splashed silver paint on to look like stars - its metallic so shimmers in the light, i attached to the cardfront.  I then stamped my birds, once on the base and again onto patterned papers.  
On the paper birds I used white paint on their eyes and yellow paint to their beaks, i then cut them out, gently shaped the bodies and added to the base lining up with their legs. Glossy accents added to their eyes.
I stamped the hugs sentiment. I then took a fineliner black pen and doodled in the ground for them to stand on.  Stamped the berry/flowers using a mini lavinia stamp.
I doodled with a white gel pen and added black glitter to the flowers to finish. 




Close up, you can see their glossy eyes shining.

Items Used:
Katzelkraft bird stamps 'Les zoisos' KTZ217
Katzelkraft sentiment stamps 'Carpe Diem' KTZ206
Lavinia mini berry stamp (LAV509)
12x12 Paper pad 'Ombre Effects' B&M

Wow, this is one of my absolute favourites, Emma. The effects you used on the eyes really make them pop out and give life to the birds. Great choice of vivid colours. I haven't heard of Katzelkraft before - seeing this, I'm definitely going to be checking out their stamps!
