We had two beautiful Blue Tits visit our bird bath this week, so I decided to create a journal featuring a Blue Tit. I used the Eileen Hull Pocket Notebook to create the journal, then covered it using my favourite Lumber embossing folder. I used one of the birds from the Feathered Friends die set, along with both wreaths from the Funky Wreath set. The leaves are from the Geo Floral set, and I added a little twig from the garden! I die cut the bird from watercolour card so I could add the right colouring with watercolour paint.
I think my favourite Lumber embossing folder has a little competition. I'm really loving this new Brickwork embossing folder too.
I really kept it simple and just added a little Oxide ink to it, to give a whitewash look. The wreath is using the Funky Wreath set, and the flowers are from the Geo Floral set.
For the next card, I wanted to give the brickwork folder the look of worn, cracked paint, so I mixed some aqua ink with Ranger Crackle paste to create that kind of look. I added some flowers using the Bold Blossoms Bigz die.
One more for today - this is another favourite - the Geo Floral set. I really love these delicate frames, and you'll notice I've used the leaves from this set on so many other cards.
