I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!! I made this little guy while sitting with my good crafty friends last week and catching up after a couple of months of crazy! It is amazing how just a couple of hours of creating something makes me feel like I am ready to tackle the world again!! I know we are all ready to gear up and officially start the holiday season, just remember to take time for yourself and make some great art this season! I hope you enjoy my little bird from my 'artsy' day!
I started off by recycling this little frame that I found at Goodwill. I loved how it was just a little box, waiting to be re-created and it was only .50 cents! I gessoed it and then covered it wtih the ADORABLE Fancy Pants Happy Go Lucky Paper!! SO pretty!!
I cut out the bird, some flowers and a stem! Then I used my FAVORITE Matte Medium to glue them all into place! I used teal paint to paint the sides and distress ink to distress the edges!

I chose the ticket from the Fancy Pants Happy Go Lucky ticket pack and glued it to the edge. I loved the sentiment, Life is Short, Choose to be Happy! SO great!
Doodles and Washi Tape finished off the project!
Thank for stopping by today!! Go, procrastinate from something you have to do today and create!!
