This is my second post for the day so when you are finished checking out this card, please scroll down to see what else I have been up to. :)

Della, from I Brake For Stamps, sent me an extra sheet of rubber to play with besides the ones I got to pick out this month. I am sooooo glad she did!

You all know that I do lots of cutsie cutsie stuff but I mixed it up a bit on this card.

The stamps set is IB4S "Christmas Collage" rubber sheet and it is amazing!

For this card, I used The Paper Studio's "Wrinkled Red Leather" and I distressed it with Staz-On Jet Black ink. The "Solid Pearl Gold" paper is also by The Paper Studio. The cardstocks are Bazzill.

That beautiful ribbon is Really Reasonable Ribbon's ~ Gold Swirls and their Totally Twill Moss Green.

The other elements I used are: dew drops from The Robin's Nest, a gold marker, watercolors, and Scor-Tape.

It's a Crow...a Bluebird..a Crow...I'm so confused!!!! ;)

Tweet

Hello All!

I did a video tutorial for Clearly i Stamp blog using my "Something to Crow About" illustration that I did for Clear Dollar Stamps, and this is the resulting card.

The tutorial has a bit of a twist.

One...because my crow is now a bluebird.

Two..because I mixed Copics and Prismacolor pencils with Gamsol.

I hope you will go check it out!

The papers are from The Paper Temptress and are:

Heavenly White

Cryogen White

Lapis Lazuli

The ribbon is White Organza Dots from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

You heard right...WHITE. ;)  I colored it with my Copics for the perfect matching color! :)

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hugs,

True :D
