S&D Challenge #2 - For the Birds

Posted under S&D Challenge, Sunflowers and Dragonflies Creative Designs by Beth


Welcome to the blog challenge from the Sunflowers & Dragonflies DT! This week’s challenge is to create a card or project using a bird. Anyone can play along in the challenge and we hope you will! There are no limits on time or supplies. Of course we’d prefer that you use images by Sunflowers and Dragonflies, but feel free to use other images. Please post a direct link to your challenge project from either your blog or an online gallery so we can view it. If you upload to an online gallery, please use the keyword S&D2 (add challenge # after S&D). Please check out the challenge projects below from each of our DT members and click on their blog links to find details about each specific project.

My card uses the “Owl” stamp, which can be used in many ways.  It is a great stamp for Halloween, don’t you think?  Inspiration for this acrylic painting came from art by Blonde Blythe. The image and background were painted with acrylic paints, directly onto cardstock.  Warping did not happen because I added little to no water.

This week the design team really mixed things up for you. Details for each project can be found by following the links to their blogs.

Kim created a 4 x 4 card with the Owl stamp
