The Anti-Bye-Bye Blackbird

Get it - because this little birdie is saying "Hello." Yep, I had caffeine today!
I love this bird. He's the reason I bought the set - Autumn Leaves Nature Set by Rhonna Farrer. I stamped him in Palette Black, and then went over him with JudiKins Diamond Glaze (again, not that you can tell from my crappy cell cam - ugh!). Letters are from an Inque Boutique/SeeDs set. I got the striped paper (your seeing front and back) on clearance, and the green & white floral paper is Basic Grey. The ribbon was from the oodles that Michelle sent with one of the Secret Sister cards - how awesome is that! I adhered using vellum tape - we'll see how it holds up. I punched the flowers with a retired SU! punch I bought from Alana, and the centers are black gems I recently picked up from Archivers.

Hey! I was just looking at this set today, and thinking that I'd like to get rid of it. Now I know I'll have to keep it. Who knew it could look SO good? :0) mel
