Good Wednesday Morning!! Can you believe it is August already... time sure flies!! After the heat of this summer... you would think I'd be welcoming Fall with open arms... and I am.... in a way :) Ready for some cooler temps as we have had above normal this year BUT, I so love summer... and fall brings winter :)
Enough of my whining!!
This month for the Serendipity Stamps Challege it's Anything Goes.....
Since I didn't get a chance to play with the new sweet Bird dies...
As you can see there are several options for using these dies. Layers of feathers and accessories for different occasions or holidays/celebrations.
I die cut the images with watercolor cardstock and colored with Zig Clean Color brush markers... the colors come out bright and beautiful. Used a watercolor brush/pen to blend and get variation in color. I'm still new at this but, comparing to copics (copics have so many color pen choices-over 300 and the Zig large option has 60) so when you try to blend there are less color options. I used a Pretty Pink Posh die (sold at Serendipity Stamps) to create a shaker card. The sentiment is from Serendipity too.
Want to go shopping? The 50% off Stamp of the month for August is Large Veggie Basket (shown above).
For more inspiration there are samples from the design team on the challenge blog or you can visit them directly and get all the details by clicking on their names below.

Those birds are sweet! What a dramatic colour combo too. Lovely!!
I love the black and white with the bright birdies.... They totally pop off the card! All of the bird cards are so cute and clever! Love it!
Love that you made a shaker...and your birds are wonderful! Everyone is doing such fun ideas with these new dies.
These birdies are adorable Vickie! The red and blue are stunning and I love the details you added, like the black mask on the cardinal and the gorgeous bow. And heck! Who doesn't love a shaker! ??
So cute, Vickie! Love your window tag w/ the birds on top. Making it a shaker is such a great idea...almost looks like a feeder w/ seeds inside.
What a sweet card. I don't know how long I'll be able to resist those birds!
