This week’s Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop theme is all about Nature…trees, flowers, ocean, scenery, etc.! We could go SO many different ways with this! My first inclination was flowers, but then I pulled out my new Sweet Songbirds stamp set…because it is just TOO CUTE!
SWEET SONGBIRDS
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Sweet Sorbet cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 3 x 5-1/2 piece of Basic White cardstsock was stamped with the tree limb in Early Espresso, the leaves with Parakeet Party, the notes with Orchid Oasis Inks, then added centered to the front.
- The smaller songbird was stamped with Sweet Sorbet Ink, the belly and wings with Flirty Flamingo Ink, the beak with Mango Melody Ink and the eyes and feet with Early Espresso Ink. They were hand-cut and added to the tree limb with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A 1-1/2 x 4-1/4 piece of Tea Boutique DSP was added across the front.
- A 1/4 x 4-1/4 strip of Sweet Sorbet cardstock was added to the DSP.
- The greeting from Sweet Songbirds was stamped with Early Espresso Ink on 1/2 x 2-1/2 piece of Parakeet Party cardstock, the end cut at an angle, and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Two In Color Matte Dots were added above the greeting.
