cameo birdie
Please 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.

this is really pretty Diane. Am I the only one in the free world without nesties?!? Your liquid pearls are perfect too… I can never get mine to look like anything but blobs - lol!
I like the liquid pearls on this. Your cameo is great. So glad you played along with the challenge.
