Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad

Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad

Good Day everyone!  I hope it is sunny and cool where you are today.

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper.  The only stamping is the greeting on the card front.

My card challenge for the day is with Fusion Card Challenge.  I am doing the sketch portion of the challenge.

The card base is Stampin’ Up! Pool Party card stock.  This is a simple and easy card for the beginner or any crafter.

A feathery panel has been cut from the DSP for the background panel.  It is adhered using Liquid Glue.

A panel from Stampin’ Up! Cajun Craze card stock is cropped using the Stampin’ Up! Delicate Lace Dies.  This is adhered across the background panel using Liquid Glue.  Have you ever tried to take a piece off of your card once glued down.  I had to do that with the lacy piece.  I used the heat embossing tool and heated the lacy piece and it was a breeze to get off.  Did not even leave sticky glue where it had been adhered earlier.

An Oval was cut from Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock using the Stampin’ Up! Layering Oval Dies.  Two birds were fussy cut from a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad DSP and popped over the oval after the sentiment from a Stampin’ Up! July Paper Pumpkin was stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink. Three feathers were fussy cut and popped on the oval at the bottom of the oval to give the feeling the birds had dropped their feathers. This oval was popped on the card front using Stampin’ Up! Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The sentiment panel is left blank so a note can be written.  A spray of feathers are adhered down the left side of the panel.

In finishing my card I decorated a Whisper White Envelope so it will coordinate with the theme of the card.  I gave the envelope flap a panel of the feathery DSP from the Bird Ballad DSP.

Thank you for stopping by today!  I hope you like my card and that you can find inspiration for your own creations from it.
