A Bird's Life Birdhouse Shaker Card with Lexa

Hello everyone! Lexa here with a super fun and sunny shaker card starring the adorable A Bird's Life Stamp and the coordinating dies. All the elements in this set are so sweet – with the little birdies and the bird houses. There are so many possibilities to use this set, and for this card, instead of hanging the tiny houses I used the wooden posts to set them on.

I started my card with some blending of Spiced Marmalade, Wild Honey and Mustard Seed Distress Inks to create a gradation that looks like a sunset sky. As for the background of my shaker window, I use some patterned paper that looks like a blue sky and a green bush. Mixed yellow sequins are a perfect pair for the color scheme I use. I stamped all the images with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers. I die cut them all together with the coordinating dies after I finished with the coloring. I love the perfect thin white lines around the images. It works like magic!

I stamped the sentiment on a piece of fishtail banner and adhered it with some foam tape. I just bought a couple of Nuvo Drops and they are so pretty. They look like enamel dots once they settled out. The yellow dots on this card are using the Nuvo Drops.

Thank you so much for visiting the blog today. I hope you have a great day.
