First, we are thrilled to welcome Florence Teixeira as part of the Crafty Secrets Team! AND welcome Guest Designer Melisa Waldorf this month. Thanks for joining us ladies, I can’t wait to see your beautiful projects.
Today’s challenge is “Bird themed” using different Bird products from Crafty Secrets. So, I picked this darling image from Birds & Blossoms Creative Scraps. In real life, the flower is not that dark… it’s a pretty soft pink, but in this picture, well it’s dark… I made the background using Glimmer Mist just like I did a couple posts back for the Tattered Angles and Spellbinders Blog Hop large tag. I have received many questions asking if I removed the tissue paper after spraying it with the Glimmer Mist. Yes I did remove the tissue paper. I hope to post a video showing you how soon.
Today Marisa Grosson is offering a $30 gift certificate, so be sure and visit her blog for the chance to win. PLUS Sandy will be doing a "Bird" themed giveaway on the Heartwarming Vintage Blog .
