Birds and more Birds for Allsorts


Morning Peeps, Saturday morning and a new theme at Allsorts, the theme this week is 'Masculine. This will be a two week challenge to cover the Easter period. We have two stamps as prizes, both from Craft Stash, one is AALL and Create and the other Woodware.

Yet again an AALL and Create make, this one using Seeds of Hope onto an oxide background just 'splodged' on with acetate, a little colour added to lift some elements, wordage, washi tape and little birdies.


The second one using the larger Bird image from Friendship Florals, one of the new Spring releases. A Gelli Plate circle using Oxides, the Birdie stamped and a few elements bleached out, some background stamping and words from the same set.

And before I go, a few of this weeks Two Red Robins samples using some of this weeks new releases from Highlight Crafts April Showers collection released on Create and Craft TV. Some of the veggies are also available as Web Exclusives, note the size of the radish's in the new Greenhouse, clearly, it's extremely hot inside!


Above and below this weeks new web exclusive releases, Fox Cubs called Little Rascals and Mum Flora watched over my Dad Phoenix. In the background the Hay Bales from Twilight Moments and Poppies from Scarlet Petal and Spotty Dotty. The Foxes and the Just in Case range (card below) are all on special offer at the moment and you can get an extra 10% off by using my code on the sidebar.


And finally the Sloths from the Just in Case range, curious animals I always think just hanging around as they tend to do, over a stencilled background.


Happy weekend and as always my appreciation for your visits and words of encouragement.

Wow what a lovely selection of nature inspired cards

Sarah said...

Gorgeous cards Brenda. The inky birds are gorgeous and very appropriate at the moment as they seem to be everywhere. We have had a bit of buzzard "action" outside the kitchen window and we have watched them pinching fronds from our willow and taking it to their nest in our tallest oak. Hopefully we might see some baby buzzards in the not too distant future. The Two Red Robins artwork really is gorgeous and make for such gorgeous wildlife projects. I do wish my radishes would grow that big, I do love them!! Hope you are doing okay Brenda xx

Craftyfield said...

The TRR images never fail to wow! The Sloth card is my favourite too, the design is different and fairly clean plus the sloth are the cutest!
Love your AALL cards too, very much a style you have mastered.
Hope you are doing well this week Brenda. x

Ellibelle said...

Ciao Brenda, spero che tu abbia avuto una buona Domenica!! Mi stupisci sempre con le tue compilations di splendide cards! La prima è molto fantasiosa e luminosa e i merli con la grande foglia verde parlano proprio di Primavera! Anche qui ci sono molti merli sempre affaccendati, mi piace molto ascoltare il loro chiacchierare.
Anche l'uccellino della seconda card è delizioso sul cerchio fatto con il Gelli plate.
Le mie preferite sono le cards di ispirazione con i prodotti di Two Red Robins, che splendide scene con stupendi colori e molti elementi interessanti!!!
Buona serata e buon inizio di settimana!
