Hello friends…so glad you've stopped by today!
I'm so excited about the NEW Thinlits die set for Tim Holtz "Bird Crazy" Stamp set! The die cuts out all the birds, wings, eyes and beaks.
I LOVE these guys soo much I had to use them all for my project.
Stamp the birds on to Watercolor cardstock and die cut using the matching Thinlit die. I like to do all my die cutting before I color just incase I make a mistake when I line up the die.
I found it INCREDIBLE that the dies fit so perfectly around all the bird images. Simple AMAZING two companies can work together with such detail. Mind boggling really! Kudos to Stampers Anonymous and Sizzix for making this happen.
I used all the new Distress Marker colors Cracked Pistachio, Abandon Coral, Mermaid Lagoon, Fossilized Amber, Twisted Citron, Hickory Smoke and I need a brown so I used Gathered Twigs. I also used a Detail Waterbrush to blend out the colors then added a little more color with the Distress Spritzer. Love all the texture and depth it adds.
At the bottom of the pile is the bird I have named Max. He's such a cutie don't you think!!
Which "Bird Crazy" friend is your favorite?
Thanks for stopping in!

Get out! This is incredible! The birds are about to get on the crazy train. I can't pick a favorite. Just love them all to pieces. Loving this piece with all the birds. Your coloring is just amazing. Thanks for sharing.
I love this Richele! So cute! You did a great job creating this fun piece!
What an adorable piece Richele! This would look great in a kids room. Max is my favorite too!
I love, love, love your project Richele! You have really spotlighted those "Bird Crazy" birds perfectly! You have got mad coloring skills! :)
I loved your cards, but this I love even more!!! I'm in awe of your colouring. My favourite is "Crazy Danny" (third from top), he reminds me of Danny from Grease with his crazy hair quiff and he's definitely the getaway driver. ;)
Fantastisch...ich liebe diese Vögel :-)

This is a fabulous creation Richele and those dies are so detailed!! If I absolutely had to choose it would be the third from the bottom for me, he is such fun, he looks like he has been up to some mischief! Anne xx

This is beautiful! Love "Bird Crazy" and your coloring is phenomenal!!!
They are so cute !!! Bravo for your project, it's so niceeeee
I love love what you share with us with those crazy birds! Nove I NEED all of that too.
The stamps I have and loveplaying with them. Thanks for the inspiration.
Your colorful paint resist makes a beautiful background for your amazing distress marker colored birds. The spritzer adds wonderful texture. I have to agree that Max is the cutest! He seems to be trying to figure out how he ended up on the bottom of the pile but at least he has some grass to cushion his little feet. Love it!
Oh I just love these balancing crazy birds! Your background is gorgeous and I love how you have colored the birds. What an awesome piece.
Killin' me. I have tried so hard to avoid buying these stamps, but the matching dies are forcing me to pull out my wallet! Love your little panel of feathery friends here, Richelle. They're all too cute - too hard to pick a fave!
Richele great job and love what you did here with these little guys...
love it!!
Richelle, I saw you at Blaze Pizza recently but didn't have the nerve to say hi. The next time I will DEFINITELY bother you to tell you how CRAZY I am for your Crazy Birds. They are fabulous.
Oh Richele! This framed piece is simply Crazy Cute!! Totally awesome totem of stacked Crazy Birds and I love your bird named Max at the bottom :) (I'm partial to Max's...I've a dog named Maxine!) :) The dies & stamps need to be sold as a set now!! :) :) XOXO-Shari
Got mine ordered. Love what you did with them and Max is adorable!
Richele I adore your Crazy Birds! Your frame is spectacular! Especially I love Crazy Bird at the top and third !!!! BArbarayaya
I think I like your Max the best...what an adorable piece. The coloring is fabulous! Even their feet are cut out so meticulously. Hats off to Tim, Sizzex, and Stampers Anonymous for making this happen
Saw this on Tim's blog, thought it was adorable! Love those wacky birds.
Amazingly CRAZY!! How fun!!
I love this stamp set, but hate fussy cutting. The new dies make this so tempting to buy!
"Shut the front door!".........I am patiently waiting for my coordinating dies to arrive and now I know just what I'll do, when they do! This is the best "Crazy Birds" art I have seen yet! LOVE IT!
Like everybody else, I love this too. It is so cute that I'm tempted to case you (and could never do it justice) and frame it for my bathroom. I have a small powder room that we just painted and has bare walls.
