There is still time to play along with the CASology challenge – BRANCH; it is an extended deadline!
I thought I’d post some more inspiration for you:
I created this card based on an illustration I found searching the internet for ideas. I loved the colors and the inclusion of a bird for new years.
The hardest thing about making this was getting the bird colored! The stamp is a 2-step image so I had to do LOTS of selective inking and masking. And it took 4 tries to get it to this (not perfect, but after four tries, it was good enough).
I hope you join us at CASology- the challenge doesn’t end until Monday, January 6!
happy new year
