Adorable Birdie Inspiration

Happy Monday!

I’m so excited to share these two adorable cards by Liz on the blog today. She always has such creative and vibrant cards and I know you’ll love these cards, too. Let’s dive right into her post…

For this first card, I used these fabulous new Scallop Circles Dies as it’s hard to resist not to use with all the amazing stitched details. Plus, I love how it cuts through the cardstock with a clean cut. Also, I used the new Birdie Friends stamp set as it’s so versatile with all the sentiments and cute images.

In addition, I pulled out this adorable bird from the Birdie Notes collection which I water colored using Zig Clean Color Real Brush to create another shaker card.

I’m head over heels about this new sequin Easter mix so I wanted to make sure to use again. Also, if you notice, I have some little flowers on the acetate. This is from the Spring Flower mix and thought it went perfect with this Hello Friend card.

Can you tell what else is new? It’s these tiny mini scallop borders from the new Stitched Borders 4 collection and let me say, these are absolutely wonderful and beautiful clean cuts.

On this next card, I had more fun using the new Stitched Borders 4 collection with these big stitched scallop borders, so I cut several of them using card stock from the Sweet Treats pack of Simon Says Stamp.

Next, I cut a strip of green apple cardstock to place on top of all the scallops, but since I wanted it with stitches, I pulled out the Stitched Borders 2 die set and used the stitched row.

As I was creating this card, I wanted something underneath the little bird, so I pulled out Stitched Photo Frames and die cut the largest one. Not only do you get a frame, but also this amazing small stitched rectangle which was the perfect size for this card!

Next, I water colored this adorable bird and little chick from the new Birdie Friends stamp set along with the matching coordinating dies which made it easy to cut the images out and pop them up for dimension. The tiny little bow is from the Holiday Pals set. Last but not least, I added the sentiment and some 4mm Sparkling Clear sequins.

I hope you all enjoyed today’s post and these cards by Liz. Join us on Wednesday as we’ll have a super fun post sharing how to organize/ swatch your ink pads, along with a video.

Have a great start to your week!
