Wow, Christmas is only a few days away so I thought I better get one more Christmas card in. I made this one for my sister. She loves birds too and has many feeders in her garden.
The bird was stamped on white cardstock and then coloured by sponging on various inks….this is such a quick but effective way to colour these large images. I used a Martha Stewart glue liner pen so add some hi-lites on the bird and sprinkled on very fine white glitter – Stampin’ Up. There is no die for this stamp set…at least I don’t have one…so it was simply cut out by hand.
The large snowflake
was die cut and then I die cut the circle out of it so I could have the bird
partly in and partly out of the snowflake. Then I cut another circle just a wee
bit large to glue behind it to hide that open space. The sentiment was stamped
and embossed in blue – on old HOTP stamp set on to a small scalloped circle. It
needed something on the left side to balance the card so the die cut snowflake
was added.
That’s all for
another week. I’ll be back on Monday with another card. May your weekend be
filled with love, laughter and crafting merriment!
Cheers
Violet
