The Created ByHand theme this week is crows. I'm hoping this will pass for a crow, although some of you might shake your head and say it's something else. Perhaps a bird enthusiast will enlighten me!
I used the 'kiss' technique for the bird: inking up the bird, then stamping it onto a swirl stamp, then stamping it here. The swirl effect can be seen on the upper half of the bird, and amazingly gives it an eye!
---Stamps : Time to Stamp ATC sets 1 & 2, and Birds of a Feather; Stampington Fresh Flowers Elements
Inks : Adirondack Lettuce and Denim; Adirondack Dabber Snow Cap

Wow this is great.
Stunning piece.
Looks like a crow to me!! This is a great bg, too, with the branches and those subtle flowers. Nicely done!
This is just gorgeous! I have that plate too and love it.
OH! I love this.The background is wonderful..Looks like a crow to me.But then I think mine was a sparrow!! I just love everything about this..
Fabulous crow. And I love the background.
It's worked out brilliantly Ros, love the colours you've got going on with this piece too
Never heard of the 'kiss' technique before. Works wonderfully. Love how you've craeted the background. x
Wow -thought you'd painted the crow (definitely looks like a crow to me) and painted that dark pit of an eye too. How sinister are these birds. Don't think I'll be entering cos they make me feel creepy. But with your lovely quotation and colours yours is looking very "chirpy".
Much love,
SJ
