Birds twofer

 Hello there! Pinch punch - first of the month again - and this month the theme at countryviewchallenges is the Birds and the Bees - It can be the birds or the bees too - I've gone for the birds first - I had too many possibilities here so ended up with a twofer!


For this one I used an old stamp and stamped it onto a gel press background made using a couple of stencils superimposed. I restamped the birds and added them over the top of the paint to get a clearer image. 


For this one I used a die from creative expressions out currently - you can find it here.
Its called puffin splash and I love the fish and the puffin! 

Please, if you are going to enter, make sure the bird/bee/both are pretty prominent! You can link up your make here.

Hope you have a great day!

Big hugs

Rachel xx
