After cancelling my SSS card kit I jumped right into ordering “one time” the Hero Arts February kit Spoken Bird. It’s adorable and going to be a lot of fun. As you can see the stamps come with dies. A lot of dies that I had to snip, snip, snip. But it was worth it. Also included were 4 cards out of a wood grain texture, 3 ink cubes and two little wreaths.

So I had to jump right in and make one card before I call it a night. Hoping over the next few days I can get emersed in this kit.

Wow, what a perfect card kit for you, Farley! And a great card to start with!

What a great card kit! I can’t wait to see what all you do with it. Your first card is wonderful!

Great card, Farley! I, ahem, may have ordered that kit as well - so I'll be looking to you for inspiration, LOL.

Thanks everyone. I can’t wait to get back to the stamps tonight. (Going birding after my aquafit class for the afternoon...maybe a little before the class too, LOL)



Too funny Keitha. Yay! I am considering subscribing for a few months.

I might have just ordered that kit, too.... can't resist it when it has a stamp that says "hey gull-friend"

Well worth the money with all those stamps and dies... whoohhhoooo!!!

That is awesome! I love that!

Oh my goodness!! My kit arrived! So much fun goodness!!

You HAD to buy this kit. It was literally made for you!!!!!!

Love how your 1st one turned out.

Took a break from scrapping the past couple of days to play with this kit. First up, an attempt at no-line watercolouring. Apparently I need a steadier hand, better glasses and a brush with stiffer bristles. I'd have preferred some slightly different colours as well, but my objective was to use up some leftover ink in a palette so I worked with what was there. Today I pulled out my small Dylusions art journal. Paint, gesso, Gelatos, stencils, stamps, archival ink, embossing ink and powder.

In LOVE with both of your art pieces! Beautifully done Keitha.

I too want to try that watercolor technique. I watched a video (Lydia’s) on that technique...must try it. I’ve got some free time coming up this weekend and plan on getting busy with that set. I have a lonely Dylusions art journal that needs my attention.

I might have too!

Has anyone noticed who has this set that there isn’t an actual Gull in the flock? None of those shapes speak Gull to me. But I love the “hey Gullfriend” stamp.

Anyone?

I thought in a pinch the bird looking back over his shoulder could be used as a gull. Couldn't decide if they were all meant to be specific species or not.

Yes, I think he definitely might be a gull, given the right coloured plumage. Some of them look as if they could be British birds too!
