Summer Birdie by Helen Chilton

Those of you who saw the HobbyMaker shows yesterday will recognize this little birdie. He comes from a Christmas set of stamps but you don't have to use him just for Christmas - change the colours and he could be happily chirping in Spring or Summer.

This tag is one I had left over from my projects - I've painted it in white, overglazed with Crackle Glaze and then painted in Light Blue and Lime.

I then stamped the bird and some leaves and coloured them with Satin Inks.

Cut them out and layer them up. Add text.

And there you have it, a summer bird tag. If you want to see some Christmas ideas hop on over to the HobbyMaker website and check out yesterday's show.
