Tuesday with Tara {take 35}

Happy Tuesday!  I’m glad you’re here today!  It’s March 1, the sun is shining where I’m at and it’s got me thinking about spring and bright colors and inky fingers and other things that make me smile…

First up today, I’ve got a winner to announce!  I took all the comments left on last week’s blog post and the facebook page post, and used a random number generator to come up with a winner!  (If it’s not you, stick around till the end of this post for another chance to win a prize!)

The winner is…

NANCY L.

Congrats!  Contact us with your mailing address and we’ll get your feather stencil sent off to you!

Today we’re moving from feathers to BIRDS- just a little crazy bird today 🙂  I mixed up another custom paste for my background using a couple shades of Distress Ink and Transluscent paste and a generous amount of chunky glitter by American Crafts.  I stamped my sentiment first, then placed the Crafter’s Workshop stencil over it and applied paste with a palette knife.  Once the paste was dry, I sprinkled some Color Burst over it and spritzed.  It made a fun background!

My crazy bird was also colored with a mix of Color Burst and Distress Markers, then finished off with a generous amount of Stickles Glitter Glue 🙂

Hope you like my crazy, sparkly bird card and it brings a smile to your day!  Everything was done on Watercolor paper today, so today you can win a package of Distress Watercolor Cardstock!

Just leave a comment on this blog post and let me know- is it sunny where you are today?  Winner will be announced next Tuesday on the blog!  Earn an extra chance to win by commenting on the pinned post on our facebook page too!
