cameo birdie

cameo-bird-diane-zechman.jpgPlease forgive me for the poor photo here.  This card was made for one of the VSN challenges over at Splitcoast and I had to take the photo in poor lighting.  I tried to edit, but I’m not sure it helped…at least the colors are a bit more true.  I would go back and take another pic, but… well, it just aint gonna happen.  LOL.  I have too many other projects that I need to work on.

This challenge was issued by Diane617 and it was to make a card with a “cameo”.  If you would like to play along (even though VSN is over), you can check out the details here.  When I made my “cameo”, I embossed the bird on the oval cut-out, then I swiped the Versamark pad over the edges and embossed those as well.   I already had the leaves & heart diecuts in a baggie with some others so they were a quick addition.  Then I grabbed my Liquid Pearls to finish it off.  I wanted to add some ribbon across the Olive panel but I ran out of time.  (During VSN you are on the honor system to make your card in 45 minutes).  I hope you give it a try…this was fun to see how it would turn out.
