Featured Stamper Sunday ~ Cards By America......

Good Morning!
I've got a ton to do again today so I'll make this post quick!  I got some new toys in the mail yesterday and really wanted to use them!  My card for today's featured stamper, Cards By America, was based on THIS layout and THIS bird and color scheme!  I had seen her bird card before and loved it and since I had those birds I totally wanted to CASE it anyway so here is my card ~

The base is Old Olive with a mat of Basic Black and then Kraft cardstock.  The top of the white, black and kraft image piece was cut with THIS Spellbinders pierceabilities!!!  OMG is it cool!  The bottom black piece was also cut with the die and check this out, it embosses too!!!! 

See the embossed swirl?  After running it through my Cuttlebug and cutting & embossing the paper, I then pierced it.  The image is a rub on I bought at Micheal's a while back.  Instead of adding flowers as the featured stamper did, I added more branches.  I also added the Olive May Arts ribbon at the bottom because it wouldn't work on the side.  I also added black rhinestones in the empty spaces because you KNOW I can't leave empty spaces!!!  This was super quick and easy and I found I really like my new toy and can't wait to use the other one!

Hope you all have a great day!

WOW! I can't believe those gorgeous little Chickadees are rub-ons! I clicked on the picture to zoom in and when you do that, you can really see them sparkle. Hmmm, I'm thinking I need to go in search of these.
