Sweet Songbirds card

Today I am sharing a sweet card using the Sweet Songbirds stamp set and one of the pretty Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam Cards & Envelopes which are one of the offerings in the upcoming July-August Sale-A-Bration brochure.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the Sweet Songbird card

Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam cards & Envelope
Basic White card – 2½” by 2½”
Scrap Basic White card

 

The stitched square was die cut from the 2½” by 2½” piece of Basic White card. Actually, this one was left over from a previous project……….waste not want not.

I stamped the bird in Highland Heather ink and added the branch below in Soft Suede.

The leaves were stamped in Soft Suede and I used the same ink to add the birds eyes. The beak was stamped in Daffodil Delight ink.

I positioned the stitched square on the front of one of the Pool Party & Soft Suede card fronts, moved it aside and stamped sone leaves so that they would appear to be poking out from underneath.

I managed to get a little ink splotch further over so added another branch and leaves to cover that up.

The wooded sign was stamped in second generation Soft Suede ink and the sentiment added on top in full strength Soft Suede. The sign was then trimmed out using Scissors.
