Today is the start of a brand new colour duo at the Color Hues Color Challenge!
Teammate Stephanie has chosen Peach and Cobalt as the colors for challenge #112! I wasn't sure which direction I was going to go, but I recently got the Lawn Fawn Backyard Birdfeeder stamp set and the Build-a-Birdfeeder dies in my possession and thought what a great time to use them!
I started by cutting all the pieces from the build-a-birdfeeder dies. The actually bird feeder was stamped, cut and coloured with Copic markers. Then there were 5 white birdfeeders cut and glued together to make the well to hold the seed. The two birds were cut from dark blue cardstock and shaded with Copic markers.
The frame is an old MFT Stamps die that I cut with the peach gold flecked Lawn Fawn Spiffier Speckles 6 x 6 paper pad!
Next the sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Backyard Birdfeeder stamp set, stamped with Catherine Pooler Dress Blues ink. Then I attached the base of the birdfeeder inside the frame. Next the well was loaded up with some sunflower seeds from the Build-a-Birdfeeder dies and Studio Katia Gold Dust Seed Beeds.
The top of the birdfeeder had a clear acetate piece adhered behind it and it was placed on the top of the feeder and its contents.
The two blue birds were attached using a combination of liquid adhesive and small foam dots!
If you haven't already visited the Color Hues Color Challenge Blog I hope you stop by and see what my fabulous teammates have created for the challenge.
Thanks so much for stopping by and I can't wait to see what you create!

This is AMAZING, Tracey! Peach is a perfect color for the bird feeder and I love how it's full of seeds! Those pretty birds look quite pleased with it too!
This is fabulous, Tracey. I love feeding birds and this die set is something I haven't seen before. Great job using the challenge colors on it.
Just fabulous, Tracey! These colors provide the perfect time to create a pair of Indigo Buntings and such a sweet little feeder!

It's the first time I've seen this adorable die set! Love those pretty bluebirds (sadly we never see them here despite the fact that they are the NY State bird!) The seed looks so realistic, and the sentiment is a lot of fun!
Tracey, this is such a creative way to use the challenge colors and it worked beautifully. And how fabulous to have it be a shaker as well! Your card is so, so cute. Love it to pieces!
I think we've all been pushed to create something different with Stef's colours, love those bluebirds and the feeder. Such an ingenious way to make a shaker element, looks just like a real one, fab make. :)
I like Karen, have not seen this adorable set! As soon as I saw your card I fell in love with it. And you made it a shaker too. Wonderful, Wonderful job my dear!
Such a unique color combo and you picked exactly the right products to use for it, Tracey! Absolutely love that you made a shaker with the bird feeder and I adore those gorgeous cobalt blue birds! Wish I had that beautiful paper pack you used for the frame!
