CD Covers

I wanted to share this art that I made a few months back for my friend Margaret. A group of us got together and we all made CD Covers for Margaret for her birthday. She collects them for in her Art Room and has a fantastic collection. The theme was of course 'birdies' and colours were blue, sepia and gold. This image was my first play with the 'tree' stencil that i had recently purchased. My daughters both managed to grab it before me and had created some great 'art' with it - so the challenge was on!

In this CD cover i have added some stitching and even some stencilling. I really want to try new things and have to make myself be a bit more adventurous. I continue to love using the cuttlebug embossing folders in my backgrounds... so happy was I the day i discovered this technique.
