Bird Is The Word - Admire

The new word challenge for Bird Is The Word is ADMIRE. There is also the optional sketch by the lovely Nadia... pop on over and check out the gorgeous DT examples for a bit of inspiration.


I didn't use the sketch this time around.  I found some old Cosmo Cricket pp's which I thought would go well with this recent pic of Luke and Brittany.  I don't seem to be able to part with my old papers and they always  find their way on to my LO's at some time or another.
Made this LO pretty simple by layering the pp's and outlining the floral design with a fineliner pen to accent the design.  I added a touch of lace and a cluster of Prima flowers then grunged it up with a bit of paint, ink. rubons and distressing.





Thanks for stopping by and leaving some love :)))
