You Are Special Bird

I'm back with another Birds and Branches card.

This is one of my favorite sketches. I got it from an Angel Company catalog years and years ago. I have used it to make all sorts of cards.



I started with a base of Shaded Spruce 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2.

I can't hardly make a bird card without using the new Forever Greenery DSP. They just go together! So I added a strip on the left. This piece is 1 1/4 x 5 1/4.

I used the new Mini Greenery Embossing Folder. This is a pack of 2 embossing folders. Both are 6 1/4 x 3 3/8. I embossed a piece of Pear Pizzazz cut at 3 7/8 x 2 5/8.

The sentiment from Tasteful Touches is stamped with Shaded Spruce on a piece of Soft Sea Foam cut at 2 5/8 x 1 1/4.






Then I stamped the bird with Pretty Peacock. Colored his top wing with Lt. Gray Granite Stampin Blend and the rest of the bird with Lt. Pretty Peacock Stampin Blend.

The nest is stamped with Gray Granite. Lastly I stamped the eggs with Pool Party and then added some additional spots with my Lt. Gray Granite Stampin Blend.

I cut all of these pieces out with the coordinating die set, Birds and More.

There is a long piece that cuts that lovely border in the die set.
I had to work hard to arrange it so that it looked right on both sides since it is so detailed.

I love working with this Birds and Branches bundle. It is one that I will use often.

You can find all of these products on my website.

Thanks for stopping by today.
