Wednesday Stamper


Here is my creation for this weeks Wednesday Stamper the theme of which is crowns. The bird in this picture is a stamp by Invoke Arts and is from the set titled "Build your nest." I stamped it onto card stock and then cut out the head and feet to put in the dress, which is an old paper doll dress that I went over in oil pastels, to give it a more faded look. The background is hand painted acrylic. This page is actually from my journal, which is why the surronding area is empty...There is actually a little green heart in the center of the snap in the crown, for some reason it didn't come out in the scan. Oh well...

You are so creative! Wow! At first I thought it was a lady, but when I saw it was a bird in the dress...I am so impressed. How fabulous of you to think up somthing this unique and like a character out of a book. In fact, I just saw a novel that was all about birds and their lives..fiction of course..now I wondor if I should have bought it. Such a pleasant read...picturing the creatures dressed up and having thier ups and downs in life...smile. Great collage!
