Bird Song

I am sticking with my Blue Bird theme on this card, I have not watercoloured for a while and I had never inked up this bird stamp and thought it was about time… I must admit I have LOTS of stamps that have never been used but I still buy more and more…. I am sure I am not alone on that one…. I also have this problem with printed papers….. Please tell me I am not alone!

    Don’t worry you’re definatly not alone! :) I won’t even tell you how many stamps I own that have never seen ink! And don’t get me started on paper-I’m a paper hoarder!

    This is so beautiful Teneale! Loving the blue and chocolate together.

  4. Kerry Says:

    Well, I do have a few stamps that have only been used once … but papers? Oh yeah, a hoarder big time! LOL. Love the card as always - going to have to read the dictionary for more superlatives! and can’t wait till it’s class time to make them. Roll on friday night!

  5. Karen Campbell Says:

    You are not alone thats for sure I have way too many stamps and as for paper well lets just say working in a scrapbook store doesn’t help,so many papers so little time.

    Love this card and am sooooooooo looking forward to watercolouring.

    See you Friday :)

    That’s gorgeous Teneale, and the sentiment matches perfectly. I’ve only just got into stamping, but have been a paper hoarder for ages, sometimes I keep them and don’t want to cut them just because they are so pretty!

  7. Kathy Says:

    This is beautiful. Love the image, your coloring, and the soft background you created with the sanded stamp. I think you’re the best bow maker I ever saw:)

  8. Christine H Says:

    Just beautiful Teneale. A wonderful colour combination. And yes PLEASE share your bow secrets!

  9. Angie Says:

    Wow Teneale! you are just so clever, I always love seeing what happends when you put ink to paper. Your cards are always class personified!… Both cards are totally stunning :)

  10. Janice Klass Says:

    You are so not alone… I am guilty of paper hoarding too!! Mostly because I am waiting to use it for “something special”!!??!!
    Gorgeous card, and your bows are amazing. Would love to see a tutorial on how to tie such perfect bows!

  11. Claire Daly Says:

    Just GORGEOUS as always :)

  12. Amy Sheffer Says:

    Beautiful! Love the beautiful color combo and the layout!

  13. Christine Blain Says:

    Oh, Teneale, this is divine! I love everything about it. I think you know by now you are far from alone in your *need* to buy more stamps and DSP even when you (probably) have plenty! It’s a healthy obsession to have, is my reasoning :)

  14. Ruth Says:

    Just perfect , as always….

  15. MicheyMoo Says:

    I’m still challenged when it comes to tying my ribbons into lovely little bows!!!

    This card is way-over-the-top gorgeous!! I want to come to your class just to make it for myself!!

    You certainly are a master at pulling elegant and beautiful cards together.
