Muse #261 with Tracey & Inspired by All the Little Things #83

One card for two challenges:

Muse

Tracey's pretty card

&

Inspired by All the Little Things

Avery Elle Floral Bouquet with Zigs.  I was inspired by the pretty flowers.

I was hoping for a more yellow flower with the purples but it came out more orangish.  Oh well.

CAS Watercolour April 2018 & Seize the Birthday Bird

When I saw that this month's challenge was using a bird, I went oh no.  I don't do birds that well and only had some very small birds, but then I remembered this stamp set from Stamps of Life, Flamingo 2 Stamp and thought I would try and it took a few tries.

I used my Ziggies to watercolor the Flamingo and Distress Inks for the palms.

Then I saw that Seized the Birthday was the same theme so actually am able to enter into both challenges.
