CBH June 15 - Gratitude - Timneh TY

I recently got a bunch of bird stamps from Starving Artistamp and they're beautiful. Not too big and not too small, just perfect for coloring & embellishing etc.

So for this week's Created By Hand challenge which is Gratitude, I decide to use one of them. This is a Timneh Grey, which I took extreme artistic license on the colors used. It was stamped onto tape I glittered and painted. Love this technique. You'll be seeing a lot more of it in the future. Also used alcohol inks on plastic for the background.

And of course it uses Quietfire Design rubber stamps

If you want to find out more on how I created it and see other views, just click on the card. Enjoy.
