Timeless Tuesday / Peace & Joy

Hello.  Heather here and I am your challenge hostess this week.  I have a beautiful technique for you to try.  I found this tutorial that our very own talented Beate did about a year ago and fell in love with it.  It is called The Dryer Sheet Technique.   Put those used dryer sheets to good use. Simply color your image as you normally would and adhere a used dryer sheet to your image.  You can find a link to the video HERE.

I used the pretty Cardinal from last year's set called Christmas Classics.  I think that is my favorite set ever! Doesn't it look like he is in a snow storm?  So soft and pretty.  I used the Tear Drop Circles Spellbinders dies from the Flourishes store.  The paper is Echo Park and the ribbon is Fine Linen from PTI as well as the little tag die.

Here is a close up of the image.  It looks like he is in a snow storm.  I love looking outside at the cardinals at my bird feeder in the middle of winter with snow all around.  We don't have any snow yet.  It is actually supposed to be almost 60 degrees here on Thanksgiving.  That is not normal for this time of year.  

Below is a picture of a male Cardinal in my backyard 2 winters ago.  It is very similar to the image from Flourishes.  Isn't he pretty?

Thanks so much for stopping by,
Heather
