It's week 3 of my month-long guest designer gig at the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge.
This week's theme is Birds of a Feather.
You probably don't know this about me, but I am petrified of birds!
Seriously.
So I was a little scared when I saw this challenge.
Not gonna lie. Lol.
I started my background with a text stamp, book pages and washi. I added distress ink in Fossilized Amber, Vintage Photo, and Peacock Feathers.
I used black paint to color my embossing paste and used it with TCW's Feather stencil and Tim Holtz's Chevron stencil. Then I used Concord & 9th's Perfectly Penned stamp set to create the sentiment.
As usual, Simon Says Stamp has $50 up for grabs to spend in their store. They'll pick a winner from all the entries in the challenge this week. Come on by and link up to the challenge!

Fabulous art journalling Amber!! I didn't realise you have a bird phobia! I hope this didn't cause you too much anguish, we could have changed the theme!!
I love how you overcame your fears and went for it! ;-) the background is gorgeous, I love the amber and peacock shades together, so beautiful and the sentiment is brilliant :-)

Were you, perhaps like my sister, traumatised by Alfred Hitchcock's movie "The Birds?" It bothered me some but my sister, well... (perhaps she was too young to be watching it). Really, some birds are okay aren't they? I've never known a Ornithophobic before but we all have our fears. Mine is of commenting too much on people's blogs, ha!
I like your journal page and creative use of the lettering stamps.
Wonderful journal page! The black embossed feather looks beautiful against the colourful background 😁. Happy Friday and weekend! J 😊
