A Toast To Friends

 

Hello and welcome.  I'm thrilled to be guest designing for Gerda Steiner Designs again.  I love her stamp sets, and digital sets, and these pigeons are hilarious.  

 

I've stamped a pigeon from both the A Toast To You mini and the Pigeons 4x6 stamp sets in memento black onto Hammermill white card stock before coloring them using Prismacolor and Copic markers.  Once the coloring was finished, I stamped the saying twice, once on a Hammermill scrap to pop up later. After adding some leftover tumbled glass distress ink that was on a blending brush, I layered the colored panel before adding some faux brads.  After adding my popped up saying, I dug out some grey velvet ribbon from my stash, added googlie eyes, and primas with bling centers to finish it off.
