ATCAS CHALLENGE #36


Hi lovely crafters! 
Thank you for all your fabulous entries in our ATCAS Wheels challenge - it was very difficult to choose the winners, but you can see who they are if you pop over to the ATCAS blog on Monday!

The challenge this fortnight is hosted by the very talented Michelle
and she has chosen this Code Word ~


Here is my take on the Code Word ~ 


I masked a circle for the moon, coloured the panel with Distress Inks, then spritzed with water.
The bird stamp is from the Crafty Secrets "French Mail" set. 
The stamped image looked rather "flat", so I stamped a second one, cut it out, curved it slightly and attached with silicone glue.
Sentiment from the Penny Black Salutations set.

************
Our fabulous sponsor is Kathryne of StampArt Designs, and our
CAS Perfectionist will receive 5 StampArt digis of their own choice.


Happy Crafting ~
Hugs,

What a beautifully colored panel! I love how you spritzed it with water...must try that. :) Great idea to pop up and curve the bird. It really looks like it is flying!
