Just Because Grid Floral

The Memory Box Gracious Floral image is soooooo gorgeous!  I tried out Altenew watercolor pens for the first time coloring it up.  I've listed the colors I used below.  Just wow!  Those inks are extremely vibrant which I love, especially now that summer is here.

BRI - Little Talks

It's another Butterfly Reflections Ink Monday and I'm celebrating tropical style with a colorful parrot worked up from the bluebird found in Honey Bee Lovely Layers Spring Birds.  Yes, I said bluebird.  The only thing I altered was trimming the beak to make it more parrot-rounded rather than bluebird-stabby.

I used the Lawn Fawn Tropical Leaves Backdrop adhered and trimmed down with a Waffle Flower Nesting Rounded Rectangle Die. I sponged the leaves with Catherine Pooler inks which are so so vibrant.  

The sentiment is from Waffle Flower Coffee Shop Talk because, duh, parrot--"little talks."  LOL.  I love puns, good or bad, so much!

ATSM #450 - Diecuts and/or Stencils

Are you ready for another Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge?  This fortnight we're asking for diecuts and/or stencils.  Super easy so be sure to join in!

For my card, I used lots of dies to create a super cute birthday scene. OMG, so so cute!

I colored up the LF images with Copics and sponged some of the LF diecuts with Distress Oxides.  I used the LF Watercolor Wishes paper for the tree leaves. I did color the flowers and butterfly diecuts with Copics so the colors would be matchy matchy with the birds and apples.
