Tropical Birds Card with Tina

Hi crafty friends, Tina here and since the warm sun is out today I have a card featuring the adorable Tropical Birds for you! As most card makers I always struggle with little pieces of left over card stock. So, I wanted to use these ‘scraps’ in my design today.

My base consists of three white mini card bases and I discovered that the big ‘leaf structure’ from Tropical Scenes was perfect to connect these pieces together! I stamped the large branch image once and cut it with the matching die.

Next, I cut three more of these branches from plain white card stock, these will be my support pieces to glue the card design together! I selected three cute birds and several leaves from the Tropical Birds set and cut them with the dies. To get that tropical vibe, I needed to use vibrant Copic colors.

Distress Oxide Squeezed Lemonade was the perfect shade to add some interest to the three mini card bases, for this I used a stencil from my stash. To tie in the yellow color even more I found some lemons I created for another project (Fresh Lemon Dies).

The Misti came in very handy to position my three mini panels and connect them by gluing the large branch across these pieces. For extra support, I repeated this step on the inside of the front, and also twice on the back of my card base. The mini panels were now securely attached together. I added the sweet birds, lemon slices and extra leaves following the shape of the large branch.

The sentiment was selected from the Punny Fruit Greetings and stamped onto a small white banner with Versafine Onyx Black ink. A few Gold Jewels were all the embellishment this card needed. 

Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting with these fun products!
