This was a card that I made for my Technique Class last month, then I added some bling and used it for my Stamping 411 swap card at Leadership!  I used the Faux Silk technique in the background…it looks EXCELLENT with the Nature Walk stamp set!

 

 

I started with a base card of Cherry Cobbler cardstock.  I used white tissue paper, inked up my flower stamp with Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Write Markers and stamped on it.  I finished the Faux Silk technique and placed it over Very Vanilla cardstock.  Then I ran that piece thru the Big Shot (both tabs open) with the Framed Tulips Impressions Folder.  I added a strip of Botanical Gazette Designer Paper across the bottom, and then ran Sticky Strip across to adhere the ruffled ribbon.  I pierced a hole for the Vintage Brad along one side.  I stamped the bird with Early Espresso Classic Ink and added some Chocolate Chip Marker around the head and tail.  I used my AquaPainter to blend out the colors of brown and added a little Pumpkin Pie to the beak.  I cut him out and placed him in front of the flowers with Stampin' Dimensionals.

 

Finally, I stamped Birthday Wishes from Bring on the Cake in Early Espresso in the corner and added No 147 with Cherry Cobbler on the right.  Hope you like it!
