This is my Design Team card for ColorMyHeart Color Dare #550 "Six Pack" selecting all the colors on the Board and using the Stampin' on Tuesday Sketch Challenge #608.
For both cards the CTMH Stamp of the Month "Sweet Tweets" all images were stamped using black Memento ink on white cardstock, colored using Copic brush pens and all images were fussy-cut. Cut the oval dies using Desert Rose (Card 1) and Wisteria (Card 2) and adhered the images on the ovals.

Background using Gel Press Technique with Oxide Inks: Back a few weeks ago my daughter invited me to their cabin and we had decided to use one of the days to get messy and do backgrounds using the Gel Press, oxide inks and/or acrylic inks and stencils. She had a lot of patience with me and created three times as many backgrounds as I did... I ended up with 25; but five are probably never going to see the front of a card... lol. I came up with a pretty good match for this color challenge and decided to make two cards.
Card 1: Best match of Melon and Desert Rose
Cardstock: Desert Rose and White Daisy
Card 2: Best match of Wisteria Cardstock
Cardstock: Wisteria and White Daisy
Please hop on over and join us at Color Dare's Color Board #550 and check out the Design Teams inspiration, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.

Wow I love that background! It sets a pretty stage for the birds which are beautifully colored.
Love these birds!
The gel print backgrounds are lovely for both of your bird cards. And those little birds are a delight too. The overall card design is just right. Thanks for joining us at Cardz 4 Galz, Johanna DT
Suzanne, what great backgrounds for your cards! You will have to share more details on how you used the oxide inks on your gel press... did you spray them, or smear them? I think you used a stencil on the wisteria card, but I especially love the desert rose one!! Thank you for sharing your card and talents with us at Try Stampin' on Tuesday for our "make a scene" challenge!!! -Donna
These are fabulously CUTE lovebirds!!
