I love dots but the birthday part put a tricky spin for me..not that i don't like birthdays , just do not usually put this on the front of cards...am i weird?!
Started by creating an inky background using dylusions sprays and stencils and using Dyans fab faux bleaching technique.
I added a stamped wire for mr birdie to sit on and as it is birthday time gave him a fetching party hat, with dots! Mr birdie was inked using black soot DI.
The sentiment is computer generated and the banner is made from more dylusions stamps , cut out and highlighted with White gel ink pen.
