Happy Wednesday friends! Amy here sharing a card that features the new stamp set, A Bird's Life and a set from last month's release, Friends &
Family. I thought these
two paired very nicely together to create a flower background, setting the
stage for the birdhouses.
To create the front panel, I
trimmed smooth white cardstock to 5"x 3.75". Using a Misti Tool, I
placed the birdhouses and the sentiment where I wanted them to go and stamped
it using black ink. To create a flower background, I stamped a variety of the
bold flowers and leaves with pastel dye inks. I stamped them around the
birdhouses, spacing them as evenly as I could. I did this using the stamps in
the order of largest to smallest. This allows the smaller stamps to fill in the
open areas.
I wanted this card to have
some dimension so I stamped the birdhouses and the cute little birds on the
smooth white cardstock and colored them with Copic markers. I also stamped the
bows with dye ink and die-cut all of them using the coordinating A Bird's Life dies. Then, I went back to the front panel and drew a line with
a green Gelly Pen from the top of the card to the roof of the birdhouses. To
finish my card, I added foam adhesives behind all the images and adhered them
to the front. Isn't this card tweet?
I hope you like it!
Thank you so much for stopping by today, and I hope you have an
awesome day! See you next Wednesday.
