Tim holtz crazy birds stamps

Hello friends, I am really sorry that I am not being around here lately. Today, I am here with the last post of 2015. I love Tim Holtz - Crazy Bird stamp set. There is something about those birds. Recently, I got the coordinating dies too so I made this series of quirky cards with it. I love mixing sentiments and images from different brands to stretch the designing possibilities of cards. So I pulled out all the sentiment stamps which I felt will go with them. The funny thing is they seem…

So...I had my eye an a stamp set for ages and just couldn't get myself to spend that much on one! We were in a local store this weekend and they have tons of Tim Holtz products. And they had the Crazy Bird stamp set. My hubby said get it and I wasn't about to argue! I LOVE them and boy are they fun to play with. I have neglected my Copic markers lately and really wanted to use them with these. So, since I've never colored these stamps before, I launched Pinterest for some ideas. I found this…

Good morning! Super excited to share a fun trio of cards I made with the Tim Holtz Bird Crazy stamp set - these crack me up every time, an...

I have been busy learning and practicing new technique this week. This is my first card using a Distress Crayon Textured Resist for the background. Even though I have had the Distress Crayons for awhile, I needed to learn the ways to use them. There could be no better professor than Tim Holtz. I am loving the class, Creative Chemistry 103. This card is also going to be my August card for the Card Chain Challenge. I try to do the challenge every month. It is great fun to be a part of an…

Everyone has been going Bird Crazy lately all thanks to Tim Holtz! Having spied the cool stamps coming soon called Crazy Things I figured that I should jump onto the band wagon quickly! Using a prototype of a secret app I am making to pick my colours (details to follow) I used distress inks and daubers to colour in a full A4 sheet of these fellows. I then cut them all out using the matching die set by Sizzix. Now I’ve started there is just so much more I want to do with these guys so I am…

Back in November a good friend of mine asked if I could make a card for her for her mom's birthday that is this month. I got so busy in December with family visiting and the holidays, that I hadn't had a chance to sit down and make anything. Last night I decided it was time to make a card for her because her mom's birthday is approaching rather quickly. I pulled out the Crazy Birds and got busy making a card. It was one that I improvised as I went. After I colored the birds I took a…

I have been playing with the Mini Bird Crazy & Things set. It is a great set for creating more masculine cards and just plain fun because of the great expressive faces. My latest passion is working with watercolor so all of these were done using that medium. All of the work here was done on watercolor paper that I cut to ATC size, 2 1/2" X 3 1/2". I found a watercolor paper that I like to work with that is available through Amazon that is of good quality and a 6" X 9" , 100% cotton, 140 lb…
