Happiness: Good Friends, family, summer at the beach, creating with rubber stamps

 

Birdie Thanks

I knew as soon as I saw the Spring/Summer preview brochure from Stampin’ Up! that I wanted the “A Little Birdie told me…” stamp set.

Amy Westerman made the most gorgeous cards with the Hero Arts birds and I was excited to see that the birds in this set reminded me of them.

Here is a quick 3″ x 3″ card made with the smaller bird.

I stamped the bird with Black Stazon on So Saffron Prints Designer paper and cut out it’s body.

Next I stamped the bird again in Black Stazon on a small metal rimmed tag.

I colored the background with Aqua Painter and Soft Sky and Certainly Celery Classic ink, taped the bird body on top of the stamped image on the tag and adhered the tag on a black scallop circle punchout.

The card base is a 3″ x 6″ piece of textured So Saffron cardstock folded in half. I cut a 1 1/2″ x 2 7/8″ piece of Bali Designer Paper, punched the two bottom corners with the ticket corner punch and taped it on the bottom of the card.

 Groovy Guava double stitched ribbon was tied around the card. The saying was stamped in Black Stazon.

 Quick and cute (I think)! I love this layout for 3″ x 3″ cards.
