Journaling for the Birds!

                                          Hi, A2Z Fans!

Here's a fun journal I made using the Birdcage 1 from A2Z Scraplets!
For the background I used the Brickwall stencilet with adding ink very lightly. The Birdcage 1 I painted and added glossy accents over the top.
For the bird in the cage I added texture paste to the birds body and painted.
The large bird outside of the cage I painted and drew lines in for the wings.
If you love birds A2Z has many other styles besides a large variety of shaped chipboard too! If you can't find a chipboard you are looking for A2Z takes special requests for chipboard! Here's the link & info about the special requests!

Here's the link to the Birdcage chipboard!
For the Brickwall stencilet heres the link!
A2Z has many other stencilets and maskets in the store too!
Don't forget we have our Quote challenge going on until the end of the month and we have a Blog Hop coming at the end of the month!
Lots of amazing giveaways and inspiration from the dt team
for the Blog Hop! You will not want to miss this Blog Hop!
Hope you can join us!
Have a wonderful day!
