Tropical Island - For Creative Expressions

I'm back with my second project this month for Creative Expressions, this time I"m using the lovely Tropical Island stamp set designed by Lisa Horton.

I wish you could see the bird in real life - it's way more sparkly than it looks in the photo.  After colouring the bird with alcohol markers, I used a glue pen to add glue all over the feathers before adding Cosmic Shimmer Diamond Frost glitter - it's a really fine glitter so it doesn't cover the colour underneath, and it gives an amazing result.

I used the Cosmic Shimmer Chalk Cloud blending ink to create a subtle cloudy sky for the background and then added a circle of CS Colour Cloud ink in Bright Sunshine before stamping the sun image on top.
