Good Merry Monday Morning.
Did you see that bit of pattern on the Flamingo?
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Lori (Inkingly Yours) chose this week's fun challenge.
I immediately thought of this Fabulous Flamingo stamp.
I'd seen a card done with a flamingo wearing a Santa hat and thought it was great fun.
I don't remember where I saw it, but I appreciate the inspiration.
I pulled out a piece of stamped and watercolored "sand" and a Brusho "sky".
Before putting them together, I stamped the flamingo legs.
The matching dies for the flamingo make it easy to put together.
Did you see that bit of pattern on the Flamingo?
I used a feather stamp inked in the same color to give him a little more interest.
The hat is from the retired Jolly Bingo Bits stamp set.
I fussy cut it out, treated it with some Dazzling Details
and when dry, popped it on his head.
I added a bit of sparkle to the "sand" too.
Now it's your turn.
The Design team has some wonderful inspiration pieces
to get you started.
See you at
I'm going to share this at
where all we have to do is use some of those snippets.
and
Where the lovely Maureen and her team invite us to link a Christmas card
