How in the world does someone resist this
extraordinarily adorable photo???
Let's just say not me!!! It's all about my feathered friends for
I spent a wonderful day crafting with my friend Anne-Mette, who is from Denmark, in London, Canada!!! lol I know, that may be a bit confusing, but I promise that's a true story!!
Anne-Mette had a lot of fun with my Altenew Leafy Canopy set, and taught me how to color the stamps with Zigs Clean color brushes - direct to stamp, spritzed with water, and stamped onto water color paper. I thought the technique would be wonderful for Fusion Rainbow Birds! Today, I've used another borrowed set from my friend Marcia and PTI!
Hope it's a hit with the Fusion designers!
