For todays water coloured card I thought I would have a little fun and dress these birds up in ways other than their intended.
And so out came the black fine liner and I added swimwear to both of them
I have turned one into a tall lady in a bikini and the other her short chubby companion.
Both have been coloured with suntans and both of them are carrying a rolled up beach towel under their wings. Each one is sporting sun glasses. I created the sea and sky scene behind them with Distress Inks and added a flowery hat onto her head.
This card isn't going anywhere it was simply a little bit of playtime for me and I thoroughly enjoyed myself making this imaginary scene.
The stamps are Bird Crazy from Tim Holtz and they are a whole lot of fun to play with. I hope they made you smile
More tomorrow ...

Hi Christina
ReplyDeleteLove love this card and how you've created a seascape scene with the birds. I remember seeing you do another card with these characters before. How ingenious. Thanks for the inspiration.
Morning, Christina,
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun card to brighten up what is, so far, a bit of a grey day. I love the swim-suits and their rolled up towels. A winner for sure :)

Hi Christina, you certainly had fun with the birds. I love them and even bought their "attire" stamps. They're just fun and the little chubby one doesn't look a bit sad any more with the sunglasses on :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a good day, Rose

There is no end on what you can do. I LOVE today's card! I really like the fact that you don't have to be "grungy" with them. Today's card is Brilliant Christina! I really enjoyed it! Thank you so much for sharing. Have a wonderfully creative day. Big Hugs

Hi Christina, this card brought an instant smile to my face. I have made sooo many cards using these wonderful crazy birds and everyone I've given them to think they're so much fun. But I've never thought of giving them a sun tan, what a fantastic idea! You've done a great job of your beach background. x
ReplyDeleteHow fun, when I started seeing these birds I sure didn't like them. After a month or so, I see just what can be done with them and they are cute and funny. Love your watercolour card. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWay to cute!!!
