Flights of Fancy Challenge

It's another fabulous challenge day with Stamp, Scrap & Doodle Saturday!  This challenge is being sponsored by 1-2-3 Stitch and the prize is a free stamp!!!  First check out my card and THEN (hee-hee) hop on over to join in the fun. :)

The theme for this weeks challenge is "Flights of Fancy", so pull out those inspiring thing with wings you have in your stash!  I pulled out my new fav paper from Basic Grey Kioshi. (I may need a 2 step program for BG! HA!)  I used the flower side for the background and the flip side for the bird.  Yup, I used liquid pearls to make all the pearly dots on the bird.  I can't take credit for that cool effect though.  I took a class years ago where we did the same thing and I LOVE the effect.

The base of the card is a kraft color Memory Box card.  I had stamped eggs in a brown ink to add texture, but then after I got the birdie from Artful Stamper on the Kioshi paper I realized the card was still a little flat.  I was in luck though.  The LSS I shop at has a kit of the month club which joined a while back.  The gal who runs it puts together an assortment of goodies from different vendors and we never know what we will get.  This is good for me.  I would not have ever bought the lacy trim that, I think, makes this card have more depth.  (Can you tell I am watching Project Runway while I am typing this LOL!)

Please stop by the other DT gals blogs and let all of us know what you think of our winged creations!  I've said it before and I'll say it again, comments are the REAL blog candy. :)

***A quiet countdown to the other kind of blog candy has begun (in my head at least).  Stay tuned for the big announcement with all the dets on how you may be able to be a blog candy winner here at Fuzzy Slippers Designs.
