Hi, this week the lovely talented Linda from Studio L3 chose page 58 from the fabulous C of C book which is Masks Basics. This week the challenge is sponsored by the generous Daisy at Eclectic Papers - and wow what a brilliant prize is being offered to the lucky winner. It reminds me of the song from Cabaret........ 'Maybe this time I'll be Lucky', me and a zillion others would love to win this prize and there are some brilliant crafters out there so pop over and have a look if you get the time and see their great artwork.
I die cut my Mask from Acetate as I wanted to do the Birdcage and I haven't got that mask so had to improvise. Both pieces are done on gloss card with Tim Holtz Distress Inks and the Backing sheet of the Bluey Greeny one is the Splish Splosh Technique, cut with Tim Holtz die cut. The birds have been clear embossed and stamped flower has been bronze and gold embossed. Plus I have a new stamp Two Sticks by Stampotique which I had to use......lol
Unfortunately there are no words on either of these pieces as couldn't make up my mind, so any suggestions are most welcome.
Thanks for popping by and for all the wonderful support you give me. Take care, Annette x

Hey Netty,
You did a fabulous job with the challenge. I love the colors you chose. Excellent!
ooo I love your new stamp it rocks, and your two creations are just brilliant as usual love the colours and texture such a wee talent and so modest xx
I love both of these for different reasons, the blues and the browns are fab. That bronzy flower looks stunning, I will have to have alook at that more closely. Great job Annette.
Luv B xxx
Love this, Annette! Gorgeous colours!
This is stunning Annette, I love the stamps and your colours are so rich.xxx
Lovely tags, the orange one is my fave. As usual, you have made a very good job of this challenge!
WOW these are gorgeous Netty...luv the colours xx Lizzy xx :)
I wish I could think of a witty caption with the two little stick people, but I can't at the moment! Love your splish splosh technique and the colours are gorgeous. The bird cage mask is brill too!
Netty, your link worked just fine, and your masked birdcage cards are SO AWESOME! I love your color choices for both-- lots of pretty contrast and such rich tones. The clear embossing powder looks great on the birds, and I adore that cute little Two Sticks stamp. What a sweet addition to the birdcage!
I don't think they need any text-- the imagery stands on its own. Beautiful work, girlfriend!
Wow, you are clever using the acetate to make They are both brilliant, love the orange colours. xx
These are just gorgeous. Love them both, and that little two-stick stamp is so cute...

Love the colours. Beautiful. I think I like the second one the best. Kathleen x
These are wonderful, Annette! I like the first one particularly - the bird seems to be looking at the two sticks as if to say "What on earth are you two?" xx
looks like everyone is having great fun on this challenge
Fab as usual Netty. Original and quirky - great colours and shapes too.

Oh, they are both gorgeous but I think the orangy one is my favourite!
Great pieces Netty, particularly love the autumnal colours on the second one. I love those little stick people, must get them. Must admit I have been crossing my fingers for a win for 14 weeks LOL. Have a good evening, Tracy x P.S. You could have SOAR for the second piece and only room for one at the inn in the first piece LOL, only kidding, couldn't resist. xx
wow these are gorgeous netty.i especially love the one in the autumnal colours, fabulous :)
xx coops xx
Beautiful, Netty!!! Love it!

Both pieces are wonderful. Love the birdies !
No words needed with those beauties! Love them Netty! Your colors are stunning together!
Hi Netty, I see we're both thinking birds & cages this challenge. Love the little guys popping in to say hi to the bird :)
WoW.. they both look wonderful..
I just love seeing all your creations.. Hugs, Linda
What a cool idea to use the bird cage! Now why didn't I think of that? Stellar work, once again, Netty!
Very clever with the birdcage. The one with the 2 little people needs a cute Halloween quip, but I'm blank right now.
These are beautiful. You've done a great job! Love your color choices!
Hi Annette
Two beautiful pieces of work.
You always work with such gorgeous colours.

These are wonderfull cards Netty!

These are beautiful, Netty! The fall colors one just calls to me though. Spiced cider, crisp mornings and cool evenings.......Ahhhhhhh!
These are both fabulous! Great idea to make you own birdcage mask, must try that..
Great job with the masking! They came out fabulously. And I love your color combos!
Just love these bird cages. Beautiful. Love Hells xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Luv them both, how clever!
These are just beautiful and I love the colour combination so much.
