Inside the Envelope Art
I hosted an Inside the Envelope Swap on Tennessee Stampers Yahoo Group. The only guideline was that we had to use paper that came from a security envelope for part of the project. You know those envelope we get from the bank and credit card companies... This bird was punched from the inside of one of those. So this was a recycle swap of sorts.
Tutorial....
BIRD: You will need a security envelope... I used one I'd gotten in the mail from the bank. Use Stampin Up Bird Punch to punch bird and branch out of the security envelope. Those envys have the coolest patterns.
Use black ink to shade the edge of the bird and wing. Attach wing to bird with a pop dot so that the wing is raised.
ATC (Artist Trading Card):
Hot Pink paper cut 3.5 x 2.5.
Black paper cut 3.25 x 2.25. Emboss black paper using Texture Fades Embossing Folder By Tim Holtz: Dot Matrix and the Big Shot.
Circle of Words:
Stamp in black Hope Will Give you Wings by Cat's Life Press on security envelope. Punch out with 1" punch.
Punch 1.25 circle from pink paper.
This one just has a dot for the eye. Some I did had a tiny jewel for the eye. That gave them a little more bling.
