DragonsDream - TIO - B - Flower
It's my dear dear friend Gabrielle's choice of theme for our tags this fortnight, at DragonsDream... she wants us to use the letter B and flower. I went for layered flowers - and bird .
I started with Stone mixed with Tikka Fresco paint (blending on the tag with a brayer, tag spritzed with water to help the blending process.
the bird is on of Dina Wakley's fabulous Scribbly Birds, stamped onto the tag and then the feathers "painted" on afterwards.. I used a piece of the twiggy bits my friend Lin gave me ages ago, for the bird to sit in.
the flowers are from my stash - the large one, I sprayed with orange spray (probably Dylusions, but I did it so long ago and put it away to save, that I can't remember...) it's got a flourishy type stamp stamped on it too.. again, no idea, was at least a couple of years ago I did this! Layered it up with some other flowers and a brad for the centre.
the little birds are stencilled (one of my Paris stencil haul!) and the sentiment is from the Scribbly Birds set.
