Love Birds Card with Rachel

Hello crafty friends! It's Rachel here with a shadow box card featuring the adorable new Love Birds Stamp Set. 

To start, I first created my shadow box from scratch. When folded, it measures 5" x 6.5" and can fit easily in a standard 5"x7" envelope. When upright, it measures 4.5" wide by 5" tall. To create my base, I simply trimmed two pieces of white card stock to 5" x 7" and scored each piece at both 1/2" and 5". I die cut a stitched circle into one of the pieces to create a window, stamped my sentiment to the piece with the window, and then attached both the front and back pieces of my shadow box together by adding some glue to the 1/2" tab pieces.

I next stamped all of my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock with some Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic alcohol markers. I then used the coordinating Love Birds Die Set to cut them out. Prior to adding my images to the inside of my shadow box card, I first die cut a grass panel (from green card stock) and a fence (from white card stock) using the Picket Fence Border Die Set. I adhered the grass first directly behind the bottom opening of my circular window and then added the fence piece behind my grass.

For my background, I blended some Tumbled Glass Distress Ink onto a 4.5" x 5" piece of smooth white card stock. Lastly, I added some hearts using clear acetate in the areas where it would look like the hearts were floating.

Thanks so much for taking the time to drop by! I had so much fun working with this adorable set and hope you enjoyed my card today! For more card making inspiration, feel free to check out my Instagram Feed.

Love Birds Card with Tina

Hi crafty friends, Tina here and my last card for the year is a sweet love themed one. Star of the show are the adorable cuties from the Love Birds which comes with matching dies. How sweet is this Valentine’s Day set!

You can never have enough hearts on a love themed card, so I went all out with the beautiful Bursting Hearts die. I cut this panel from white cardstock. Not only do you get a gorgeous background, but also lots of cute hearts as an extra bonus. I put them in a little bag to use on later projects.

There are so many ways in which this panel can be used so today I decided to select a blue dotted paper from Dots & Stripes Pastel. Layering the white heart panel on top creates a fun contrast. Especially when you also add a heart (Scalloped Heart Dies) and ink it in a bright red color with blending brushes and Distress Oxide Lumberjack Plaid.

I selected two cuties from the Love Birds set and colored them with my Copics in happy colors that would match my background elements. The sentiment was selected from the same set and stamped onto a small white strip with Versafine Onyx Black ink and a red ink from my stash.

The two birds and the banner were mounted to the heart with foam tape, and they fit just perfect. It’s a great focal point for this multi-layer card. A few Silver Jewels were scattered around the cute couple as a final embellishment.

I had a lot of fun creating this sweet card and I hope to see your creations soon! Thank you for visiting the blog and a very Happy New Year!

Love Birds Ornaments with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm back for the last time of the year with this duo of Valentine ornaments showcasing the ever so sweet Love Birds. And I had so much fun coloring on kraft cardstock for my Merry Mocha see-through tags that I decided to do it again with those lovely birdies.

So I started off by stamping the four birds, the branches, multiple leaves, flowers and hearts on a light kraft cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, I used my Spectrum Noir Illustrator and Graph'it brush markers to color them all, and then used the coordinating dies to cut everything. And I don't know why, but when I color on kraft cardstock I don't feel the need of adding white highlights to my images, but in that case I did add a dot on each bird's eye using a white gel pen, just to make them pop a little bit more.

Next I created my two heart shaped ornaments following the same design for both, so here are the different steps for one:

1. Cut a large Scalloped Heart out of a light brown woodgrain cardstock, another one out of a dark kraft cardstock, and attach them back to back using liquid glue

2. Cut a large Scalloped Heart out of a colored cardstock, and cut a heart shaped window out of it using the largest Stitched Heart 2 to create a heart frame

3. Glue this heart frame on the woodgrain heart panel using liquid glue

4. Cut a small Stitched Heart 2 out of a darker brown cardstock than the one at step 1, stamp and emboss a greeting from Love Birds on that heart, and attach that heart at the back of the ornament using 1mm foam squares

Next I attached my images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares, added hemp twine to create the handles, and tied bows that I added at the top of each ornament using liquid glue. And that's it! Very simple, but yet super cute. 

I hope that you like those ornaments! Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you very soon!

Love Birds Card with Gladys

Hello crafty friends, Gladys here! I'm excited to be back on the blog with a sweet card featuring the new mini stamp set called Love Birds. It is perfect for Valentine's day but I can see it used year-round for birthdays, anniversary and the holiday season.

I started by stamping all the images from the set using alcohol-friendly ink. I colored them with Copic markers and used the coordinating dies to cut them all out. Although this is a mini set it has lots of images to build scenes with. It has multiple birds facing opposite directions as well as a branch, different sized leaves, flowers, hearts, and several sentiments. I really like how the birds are drawn in this set, so sweet and cute!

Next, I used the Slimline Scalloped Frame die to cut from thick white cardstock. I trimmed it down to fit on an A2 size card panel. For the background, I used a cloud stencil with salvaged patina distress oxide ink. I foam mounted the panel onto a lilac patterned paper which was cut from A2 size stitched rectangle die. 

I assembled the branch, leaves, flowers on the background panel and adhered them with liquid glue. I added double-sided foam tape on all the birds to give them dimension. For the sentiment I used the "love" word die from the Scalloped Oval Mat 2 die set to cut multiple times from white cardstock and lilac cardstock to match the pattern paper. I combined the word die with a sentiment from the love bird stamp set to complete this simple and sweet card.

Thanks so much for joining me. Have a wonderful day!

Die-cut the hearts using the Stitched Heart 2 dies from vellum and white card. Die-cut another heart using the Scalloped Heart die. Sponge the same inks to this piece. Stack the hearts using 3d foam and liquid glue.

Stamp the images from the Love Birds stamps, color using copic markers and die-cut using the coordinating dies. Adhere to the card. Stamp the sentiment using versamark ink, sprinkle WOW! opaque white embossing powder and adhere to the card.
