Today Makes Me Smile (2nd posting)

I continue trying to create with a new technique, new Sizzix Scribble die, new paper given to me by a friend and a new Penny Place Soft Caress die.  The PB (PBSC) Penny Black Saturday Challenge in February is to: try something new.  The new technique I'm trying is "framing".

Gosh, I can't remember where I bought this stamp set, but it's the first time using one of the sentiments.  I tried to keep it CAS, so finished out with some simple border stitching.

Crazy Birds..action wobble (2nd post today)

I couldn't stand it.  I made my on wobble action springs and attached to some more Crazy Birds by Tim Holtz.  I also added tail feathers to two of them.  What's shakin'?...shake you tail-feathers!  I should do a little video, but Lordy, it's so much trouble.

What's Shakin'

I took the plunge and bought this little set Crazy Birds by Tim Holtz at Michael's after I saw a card on-line that I wanted to case...can't find card to give credit.  I changed the sentiment by making my own in Design Studio.  I used copics instead of watercolor...still having trouble mastering that medium.

I want to add more dimension next time....perhaps add some really feathers and watercolor or sponge some background behind the bird.  He looks a little furlong!
