Sweet birthday card featuring a toucan

Bird Banter card

Today I am sharing a sweet little card made using the Bird Banter stamp set from the Spring/Summer Catalogue.

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 3⅞” by 2⅜”. I stamped the sentiment in Momento Tuxedo Black ink at the bottom of the panel and added the ‘toucan’ image on top using the same ink. I added the balloon in the Momento Tuxedo Black ink.

I used the following Stampin’ Blends to colour in the image – Light & Dark Night of Navy, Light & Dark Bermuda Bay, Light & Dark Daffodil Delight and Light & Dark Pool Party. I added a retired Black Rhinestone eye to the bird.

I rounded the top of the panel with my Envelope Punch Board and backed it with a panel of Daffodil Delight cardstock measuring 4” by 2½”, also with a rounded corner.

Taking a Pool Party card base I stamped the left side of the card front using Pool Party ink and added a 5⅞” by ¾” piece of Bubble and Fizz dsp using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. The stamped panel was added to the card front on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Such a simple, sweet card. Hope you like it.
