Inspirational Bird card – Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing projects made inspired by a sketch and a colour challenge. I have used the Inspirational Sketches stamp set to make an inspirational bird card.

 

Colours in this card are:

 

To recreate the inspirational bird card, you will need:

Garden Green card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Balmy Blue card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 4¼” by 2½”
Balmy Blue card – 2” by ½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

 

The leafy sprig from the Changing Leaves stamp set was stamped onto the 5¼” by 3½” piece of Basic White card using Garden Green ink and glued the stamped panel to the Balmy Blue panel and then to the Garden Green card front.

On scrap Basic White card, I stamped the bird from the Inspirational Sketches with Pebbled Path ink. I die cut it out using the Greetings of the Season Dies.
