Welcome! It's time for another challenge at The Outlawz: Twisted Thursday. Our challenge is always "Anything Goes" but if you want to participate in the twist - it is "Mixed Media". Your card will go in for two opportunities to win from our fabulous sponsor!
This is the card I created for this challenge. I used the wonderful stamp with a bird. I love this image - but then I love birds. I have 3 wonderful feather babies and my heart sweels with pride every time I look at this little guys.
I am trying some new techniques - so with this card, I used a watercolor wash for a marbleized background.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful week. I am sure a few of you are still enjoying a few vacations - I know I will be having mine in the Fall. I plan to go to a book conference in New York called Bouchercon. It is a yearly even, although the location changes every year. I have not had a long vacation for some time so I plan to spend around 2 weeks in Sanibel, FL in October. Woo Hoo! You won't recognize me when I return..... i will be so mello!
Thank you for stopping by - I really appreciate it and be safe and CRAFTY!
This is awesome. I adore the image and the soft colours are gorgeous. I spotted you over on MIM and came for a closer look and I am so glad that I did.

Beautiful background, a fab technique. I'm a sucker for birds too, LOL and yours is delightful. Thanks for linking up with Make It Monday - sorry we are short on DT and I was browsing and noticed nobody had popped in to comment on your lovely card.
