SCS_WT285 chalenge_Metal Sculpted Rooster


For today’s WT285 challenge we were to use a photo that we have taken and incorporate it in a scrapbook page, card, etc......



For my card I used this picture of a 3 foot metal sculpture that my husband gave me for one of my Birthdays. As many of you know I am coocoo for hens and roosters....LOL

Every color, size and shape I have them all and in every room of the house.

This is one of my favorites and it sits in my garden on an old tree trunk.

I chose to use pink and yellow papers to complement the flowers.

Ribbons and papers are from [url=http://www.marksfinestpapers.com/servlet/StoreFront][color=pink]Mark’s Finest Papers.[/url][/color]


I hope you enjoy my gorgeous Rooster
Hugs always, Nicole/Nicky

Krystal effects on the balloon with added glitter.

The sentiment is from Daisy Buckett.

I embossed the small side panel with the In Love embossing folder.

For the sentiment tag I use die cut ovals.

The is some gem embelishments also added here and there. Some are not very visible, but there are 2 gem flower petals under the sentiment tag.

The cs is some scraps I had in a folder and the dp is from Basic Grey _Wisteria.

FRIENDSHIP...Challenge SC272 at SCS


Another terrific sketch from Roxie, thanks a bunch.

For this sketch I used some beautiful BG/Ambrosia paper with Summer Sun matting. I'm truly sad as this is my last piece of SS.

The oval sentiment is from Fiskars and was inked in More Mustard and Blk. I used a plain and scalloped Nestabilities for matting this sentiment.

I also chose to flip the sketch so that I could use the CB folder Friends Forever on my Very Vanilla panel. For the vertical panel I also added some pretty black lace.

The sentiment tag is popped up and I punched some butterflies "added pearls" for some extra pop.
 
I hope you like this one...
 
Hugs always, Nicole
