Not my favorite day of the week. I've heard it said, "Why is Monday so far from Friday, but Friday is so close to Monday?" That's a good question!
The featured set this week is Birds and Branches. It is featured on page 120 of the annual catalog. The nice thing about the birds in this set is that they are kind of generic. You can really color them to be any bird you like by the colors/inks you choose to work with.
This card is a take on a card pictured on the catalog page. I have seen many variations. This is mine.
Here are some details:
Forever Greenery DSP 5 1/4 x 4
Pear Pizzazz die cut using the 2nd largest die in Stitched Rectangles
White die cut using the 3rd largest die in Stitched Rectangles
Stamp the branch with Soft Suede and the leaves with Pear Pizzazz. The sentiment is from the Butterfly Gala set using Calypso Coral ink. The bird is stamped with Soft Suede. Color the top wing with Light Gray Granite Stampin Blend, the bottom with Calypso Coral. I stamped the nest with Gray Granite which is different from the brown in the catalog sample. The eggs are Pool Party. Die cut the eggs, nest and bird with the coordinating dies Birds and More. The nest is adhered using Stampin
Dimensionals.
Here is another background:
Which one do you like the best? I think I like the first one, but I keep wavering :)
All of these products and more can be found on my website.
Hope you have a wonderful day!
