First up, Love Birds... To create the stamped birdcage pattern, I started by stamping the small cage in Dark Chocolate onto a Rustic Cream card base. Then around it, I stamped both small and large bird cages using the Chai ink in from the Vintage Touch Tea Dye Duo.
Finished it off with a single bird and a sentiment.
Next up, Make A Wish and Mat Stack #2 Collection...
To create a strong yet simple focal point, I combined and layered together images and a sentiment from both sets. Finished it off with a Hibiscus Burst button, embroidery floss and a rounded corner.
Up next, Little Bitty Bird... Aren't these birds just too sweet!
Stamped them one on top of the other and colored partially with Copic markers, being careful to leave the bird bellies uncolored.
Last but certaily not lease is Year Of Flowers: Poinsettia...
Stamped the large flower onto both Shimmer White and Spring Moss cardstock. From the Spring Moss cardstock, I cut out part of the flower petals to create the leaves. Cut out the rest from the Shimmer White cardstock to create the flower. Attach the layers together with dimensional adhesive and embellished with a Ripe Avocado button. So there you have it! All the supplies used are listed in the Papertrey Ink gallery.
Hope you've enjoyed the goodies from yet another fabulous release! I'd love to hear what you all are looking forward to receiving the most from this months released! Can't wait to see what you all create!

m, you really know how to make these sets shine. I didn't get any this round but am seriously rethinking that. Love how you offset the small cake on the cake stand and the bird cage bkgd with one single dark one. Brilliant. And the Poinsettia one is just stunning!! Love the green button in the center and the textured bkgd! Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love the make a wish card...is soooo pretty. Really like the other ones too but that one is my fave, the birds one is super cute too.
