Hi!
Hope your weekend has been awesome! Ours has been great! Anyway, I took some time out this a.m. to do a card for today's featured stamper, Joanne!!! Her gallery is truly gorgeous! I found MANY cards I wanted to CASE but unfortunately, only had time for one. Joanne's card I chose to CASE is HERE. Here is my card ~
The base of this card is Soft Suede with a mat of PTI Lemon Tart CS and then Whisper White which I embossed using one of the new SU! folders. The ribbon and silver flower charm is also from SU! The next mat is first Soft Suede and then again, Lemon Tart which I pierced the corners using an Ornare piercing template and then added a small green flower rhinestone that I bought from Rachel HERE and glued them on using my Quickie glue pen.
The DARLING little birds are from PapertreyInk's new set called Everyday Button Bits. When I saw this set, I had to have it! It is SO cute. All of the images incorporate buttons and of course, they also sell some AWESOME buttons to go with the set!!! I bought the Lemon Tart buttons and used them on this card for the birdies bodies!!! The birdie legs, beaks and tails were stamped on Whisper White using Soft Suede ink. I added the googlie eyes using my quickie glue pen again and stamped the wings using Soft Suede ink on Lemon Tart CS, cut them out and adhered them on the buttons using glue dots. I then cut it out using my Nestablities label four die, added the sentiment and matted it on a larger mat of Soft Suede.
I have so many things to work on so I am going to cut this short! Thanks for stopping by!
